“One of today's best saxophonists," (NPR) Joshua Redman returns to Philadelphia for the first time in over 10 years to perform the music of his latest album, where are we. Created with pandemic-induced wanderlust, this musical journey through America marks his first-ever collaboration with a vocalist, rising star Gabrielle Cavassa, and travels across genre and generation. Mashups of new work and standards including Bruce Springsteen’s “Streets of Philadelphia,” Count Basie’s “Goin’ to Chicago,” Rodgers & Hart’s “Manhattan,” John Coltrane’s “Alabama” and more are interpreted with Redman’s signature improvisational brilliance and melodic invention.
