The Greenwich Village-Chelsea Chamber of Commerce will host their third annual Village Jazz Alive fundraiser at the Blue Note on September 26. The event will honor legendary jazz pianist and composer Randy Weston. All guests will be treated to a performance by Mr. Weston and his African Rhythms Quartet as well as three-course meal and a drink ticket. VIP tickets will include an invitation to a pre-show cocktail hour and meet-and-greet with Mr. Weston.
"I'm honored to have been chosen as this year's Village Jazz Legends Award recipient and performer with my African Rhythms Quintet. The Village is a very important place which contributed to the history of this great music called jazz," said Weston.
