  • The series continues on Wednesday, April 9, at Scripps Research with the Bill Frisell Trio, featuring Frisell on guitar, Thomas Morgan on bass, and Rudy Royston on drums. Frisell’s career as a guitarist and composer has spanned more than 40 years and many celebrated recordings. Recognized as one of America’s most vital and productive performing artists, Frisell has contributed to the work of a staggering array of collaborators, including Paul Motian, John Zorn, Elvis Costello, the Los Angeles Philharmonic, Rickie Lee Jones, Vinicius Cantuária, Marianne Faithfull, John Scofield, Bono, and Brian Eno, to name only a few. This work has established Frisell as one of the most sought-after guitar voices in contemporary music. Stereophile wrote, “Bill Frisell has quietly been the most brilliant and unique voice to come along in jazz guitar since Wes Montgomery.” The New Yorker noted, “Bill Frisell plays the guitar like Miles Davis played the trumpet: in the hands of such radical thinkers, their instruments simply become different animals.” His 2020 Blue Note Records release, Valentine, featuring his trio with Morgan and Royston, has been hailed as “a masterpiece” by DownBeat. “They consistently and strikingly play as one, voices intertwined, completing phrases as if sharing a single thought … the performances represent jazz playing at its most sublime.” The concert will be in person at the Scripps Research Auditorium (10620 John Jay Hopkins Drive, San Diego, CA 92121, north of Genesee Avenue in Torrey Pines Mesa).
