Michael Gordon Quartet in Dunedin

Tenor saxophonist and composer Michael Gordon visits Dunedin to perform some of his original compositions with a local rhythm section. Dunedin jazz fans have heard Michael perform his larger arrangements with a septet; however, this intimate gig will provide a platform for Michael to show his improvisational skill working in a more flexible format with the Bill Martin trio.
