Performing April 8,9,10,15 in California w/ Virginia Mayhew (duo), trio w/ Joe La Barbera and Darek Oles     Dear friends,   I'm looking forward to returning to California in April for some duo concerts with my long-time colleague and friend, tenor saxophonist Virginia Mayhew, and a trio gig with the wonderful bassist Darek Oles and legendary drummer Joe La Barbera.   Virginia brings her big, swinging tenor sound (and phenomenal clarinet chops) to my most recent CD, One For Marian: Celebrating Marian McPartland.        We will play some of Marian's compositions in duo format, as well as a few standards and originals in Sacramento, San Francisco and Mission Viejo.    While on the west coast. I'm looking forward to recording a new trio CD with Darek and Joe in Los Angeles. In celebration, we will play a special trio concert at the Piano Kitchen in Santa Barbara.    Details are below.
