The Harlem jazz scene of the 40s and 50s was notorious for its after-hours "jam sessions," fertile improvisational proving grounds for established soloists and new talent. American post bop, jazz pianist and producer Geri Allen takes the “jam” to new ground with her band and special guests Don Byron and Jaimeo Brown Transcendence.

The show features Geri Allen on piano with Kenny Davis, bass; Kassa Overall, drums; Maurice Chestnut, tap; JD Allen, sax and Chris Sholar, guitar and special guests Don Byron and Jaimeo Brown.
