●Friday, October 25, 5:00-7:00 p.m., The Larry McDonough Trio Performs “June 25, 1961 - The Bill Evans Trio at the Village Vanguard" at Berlin, 204 N. 1st St., Minneapolis.
The Larry McDonough Trio will celebrate the two live recordings of legendary pianist and composer Bill Evans, bassist and composer Scott Lafaro, and drummer Paul Motian on June 25, 1961 at the Village Vanguard. “Sunday at the Village Vanguard” and “Waltz for Debby” were the last recordings of this trio, as LaFaro died in a car accident just ten days after the live date at the Village Vanguard. The trio revolutionized jazz, with each member improvising at the same time while performing recognizable pieces.
The Larry McDonough Trio also will perform music from the CD "Kind of Bill on the Palace Grounds - Marking 40 Years since the Death of Bill Evans," a live recording covering the career of Bill Evans. Jazz curator Steve Kenny has called pianist Larry McDonough the Bill Evans scholar of Minnesota. "The quartet does more than replay the songbook. They relive it, reinterpret it for a new generation of jazz listeners, making then into now." - Eric Hanson, Author, Artist, and Jazz Historian.
Larry McDonough Trio is Larry McDonough, piano, Greg Stinson, bass, Dean White, drums.

Families and students are welcome. $10. Donations to The Human Fund suggested (because musicians have to eat meatloaf).
Are you tired of the same old holiday music?
LMQ will perform music for Seinfeld’s fictional December holiday “Festivus for the Rest of Us” that involves Airing of Grievances, Feats of Strength, and the labeling of easily explainable events as Festivus Miracles, along with odd takes on holiday tunes from the CD Angels, Kings, My Favorite Things and jazz based on rock classics from their recent CD Alice in Stonehenge and other AcoustElectric Adventures. A music stand pole will serve as the Festivus Pole. Audience members will be invited to submit "Airing of Grievances" cards about friends and family to be read from the stage during the break after the first set. Come ready to listen and rant.
