The free concerts sponsored by the Friends of the Encinitas Library on the first Sunday of every month are back for the first time in almost two years. The January 2 concert will feature Jazz pianist Chase Morrin. Chase Morrin and his trio, Max Kraus on bass and Julien Cantelm on drums, will perform jazz standards featuring music by some of the most renowned historical piano icons like Bud Powell, Thelonius Monk, and Hank Jones, as well as original compositions. They will show their own modern take on the tradition, finding new spaces for the future but honoring the past. Chase Morrin is a prolific pianist and composer, having released four original albums which were all multi-cultural collaborations, and written for ensembles like the Louisville Orchestra and the self-created Music Alliance ensemble at Yellow Barn. He is currently a professor at the Berklee Global Jazz Institute and New England Conservatory Preparatory School and has received eleven Downbeat awards, four ASCAP Jazz composer awards, and was nominated for a National Korean Award for his album, Gapi. In addition to finding innovative approaches to musical collaboration, Chase is dedicated to advocating for social change through music and creating more equitable spaces in music communities.
