ARTS Pick: Robert Jospé

Trace the evolution of one of American music’s most influential styles through the expert chops of jazz percussionist Robert Jospé and his music instructor colleagues—who straddle the line between players and professors—in an educational performance reflecting the history of jazz. Jospé and his quartet illuminate the music with works from the musicians and composers who drove its progression. Earlier in the day, Jospé and fellow percussionist Kevin Davis will conduct a free world beat workshop at 12:30pm, where the audience can discover the historical and geographical contexts of rhythm.

Friday 10/11. $10-12, 7:30pm. V. Earl Dickinson Building, 501 College Dr. 961-5202.
