The Harlan Geiser Jazz Quartet was formed a few years ago when Harlan was asked to put a small group together for a private party. The group plays classic jazz that is both easy to listen to and appealing to the jazz enthusiast. The group performs only a few times a year - almost always for private parties. Members of the quartet are selected from a variety of seasoned veterans and may vary from gig to gig. This program will feature Treffan Owen on guitar (Jazz Train and Pound of Feathers), Tom Marko on drums (Illinois State University), Harlan Geiser on trombone and Bill Schlipf on bass.
The Central Illinois Jazz Society House Band will perform during the middle set, under the leadership of Larry Harms. The CIJS House Band features outstanding jazz musicians from the area. They will entertain you with a mixture of jazz styles. This talented group is the heart of our monthly jazz offerings for the jazz fans of Central Illinois. We are grateful to them for their variety of live jazz offerings. Come out and support them.
