CNY Jazz Cabaret Features Prince Alum Marcus Anderson
Sam Roberts to Receive Pioneer Public Service Award

Syracuse NY – On Sunday February 24th, the CNY Jazz Black History Month Cabaret will enliven the posh surroundings of the Marriott Syracuse Downtown’s Finger Lakes Ballroom.. Saxophonist and vocalist Marcus Anderson, a veteran of Prince’s New Power Generation Band, will perform. At intermission, Commissioner of the New York State Office of Temporary and Disability Assistance Sam Roberts will be honored with the 2019 Pioneer Public Service Award for groundbreaking public service. A CNY Jazz youth combo will entertain in the Cavalier Room prior to the show. $35 advance sale tickets are now available at www.cnyjazz.org.

Brackens Financial Solutions Network sponsors the event for the 11th year, with additional support from National Grid, Wegmans, Visions Federal Credit Union, Pathfinder Bank, United Auto Workers, the Syracuse University Humanities Center, and the Community Folk Art Center. CNY Jazz supporters Bill and Nancy Byrne have again graciously underwritten a full buffet for the event, offered at no extra cost to all attendees.

Additional events will extend the cultural impact and reach of the gala concert. On Monday February 25th, Marcus Anderson will provide educational services for area students. Sponsored by the Syracuse University Humanities Center, a wide network of academic departments, and the Community Folk Arts Center, his day will start with a free symposium at noon in Bird Library’s Peter Graham Scholarly Commons, where he will perform solo and speak about his path to success, his years with Prince, and his new product line, ANDcoffee.

Attendees must register at cfac@syr.edu or by calling 315-442-2230.

Marcus Anderson last performed in Syracuse as headliner of the 2018 Northeast Jazz & Wine Festival. “Marcus brings a massive arsenal of talent to bear when he takes the stage, and has a lot to pay forward to the next generation. When CNY Jazz brings an artist to Syracuse, our policy is to capitalize on that presence to make their stay more than the sum of its parts,” according to Larry Luttinger, organizer of the cabaret series. “Jazz is the centerpiece of America’s culture, with great unifying power. Our incredible collection of sponsors deserves copious thanks for their important contributions to this celebration of the diversity of our culture, especially Vicki Brackens, without whose help this event would not have grown to be the signature February event that it’s become.”

The CNY Jazz Cabarets always feature fine national talent in a club atmosphere, with cash bar and food available. Paid garage parking is available in the garage directly to the southeast of the hotel. Patrons are cautioned that the former Hotel Syracuse garage no longer connects to the hotel via the overhead walkway.

This year’s national guest artist is Dave Brubeck’s long-time saxophonist, Bobby Militello.

Admission at the door is $30, $15 with valid student I.D.

Headliner Bobby Militello is renowned internationally as the saxophonist in the legendary Dave Brubeck Quartet from 1982 until Brubeck’s death in 2012. He is also known for his tenure with Maynard Ferguson’s big band from 1975 to 1979, his stint with Doc Severinson in the Tonight Show band, and many other collaborations, recordings, TV, and film appearances. Other acts performing throughout the day include Miller & The Other Sinners, whose sound encompasses funk, soul, and Memphis Blues, led by David Michael Miller; the acoustic swing of Stringdom, with guests Joe Davoli and Frank Grosso; the cabaret vocals of Melody Rose, hailing from Brooklyn; pianist Andrew Carrol; The Lawless Jazz Collective, a quintet comprised of star grads from CNY Jazz training programs, in a celebrity jam; and an event-closing professional jam session that runs until 9:00 pm. Mohegan Manor’s fine food and drink will be available at all times throughout the 8-hour festival. A complete hour-by-hour performance schedule is available at http://www.cnyjazz.org/january-jazzfest.

New sponsor Three Chord Bourbon, founded by Neil Giraldo, legendary guitarist with Pat Benatar, Kenny Loggins, John Waite, and others, will conduct tastings of their small batch whiskeys in the afternoon. Three Chord is also sponsoring the appearance by national artist David Michael Miller.

Sports, Ricelli Trucking, OneGroup, Hearth Cabinets And More, Burritt Motors, Scott Northrup State Farm Agency, J.R. Clancy, new sponsor Emerald Equipment Systems, Onondaga Beverage, and the Red Mill Inn.

Raffle items will also be available, including the centerpiece prizes of two tickets to the S.U. vs Louisville Men’s Basketball game in the Dome, and a guitar autographed by Neil Giraldo. “We call this event our annual ‘fun-raiser’, because you’d never know it was a charity event,” according to Larry Luttinger, founder of CNY Jazz and creator of the event, now in its ninth year. “We couldn’t make this happen without the loyalty of Seneca Savings, Mohegan Manor, and all of our other fine sponsors. I am continually humbled by the support we get from the area’s finest musicians as well, who make this shindig a sampler of America’s music from soup to nuts. There’s a room with a style of music catering to every taste at this festival.”

Twin Pillars of Jazz Visit Syracuse

Syracuse, NY – The 23rd CNY Jazz Cabaret Season opens with a visit by Peter and Will Anderson, identical twin saxophone sensations now touring internationally. Recent headliners at the New Orleans Jazz Festival and other venues worldwide, they last appeared in Syracuse at the 2018 Northeast Jazz and Wine Festival in Clinton Square. They will perform with their quintet on Sunday November 18th starting at 4:00 pm in the Sheraton Syracuse University Ballroom. Tickets may be purchased in advance at www.cnyjazz.org or by calling 315-479-5299.

Graduates of Juilliard, the Andersons have been called “virtuosos on clarinet and saxophone” by the New York Times. The Washington Post has called their music “imaginatively unfolding in ways that consistently bring a fresh perspective to classic jazz.”  They have headlined at The Blue Note, Jazz at Lincoln Center, The Kennedy Center, New Orleans Jazz Festival, Feinstein’s 54 Below, and DC’s Blues Alley. They have appeared on Garrison Keillor’s Prairie Home Companion and HBO’s Boardwalk Empire. Prolific writers and arrangers, they wrote and directed the Off-Broadway show “Le Jazz Hot”, receiving a Drama Desk Award nomination and a Bistro Award.

“Lovers of classic to modern swing and the finest songs of the 20th century will love the Andersons,” according to Larry Luttinger organizer of the event. “These Millennials really cook, and they’re at the top of their game at a tender age. I’m ecstatic that they could carve a day out of their non-stop tour schedule to perform for us.”

At all CNY Jazz Cabaret events, a cash bar and affordable buffet stations are offered. Group and corporate tables are also available. Tickets are $30 advance, $35 at the door, and with student I.D. only $10.

TWO NEW MUSIC SERIES BLOSSOM AT SUGAR MAGNOLIA

Syracuse NY – Armory Square’s newest and coziest destination for traditional southern and southern inspired cuisine will become Syracuse’s newest cultural destination, thanks to two new weekly series designed and presented in partnership with CNY Jazz. A groundbreaking series called “Page to Stage” will present come-one come-all spoken word, slam poetry, poetry reading, and storytelling events on Wednesdays from 7:00 to 9:00 pm. “Jazz at the Magnolia” will present an eclectic lineup of live jazz, soul, and Americana on Thursdays from 6:00 to 9:00 pm.  As a “CNY Jazz Club” venue, 10% food and drink discounts will be available to CNY Jazz cardholders at all these events.

The results of what we cooked up will be evident to patrons. There’s no way to describe it other than fun, hip, cozy and cool to the extreme. If you live the creative life, you have to check this out.” The Thursday night talent roster trends toward the funky, fashionable, and unconventional, with acts including Joanna Jewett, Deyquan and Yajha Bowens, Maria DeAngelis, Kanjira, Jeff Stockham, Jessy Chick, Melissa Gardiner, and others.
