Casa Larga Wine Tasting & Jazz in the Bowl with Freedom Trio!

  • Highland Bowl 1137 South Avenue, Rochester NY 14620 (map)

In honor of Juneteenth, HPC, WXXI and RPO are proud to present Freedom Trio: Herb Smith on trumpet, Peter Chwazik on bass and Joe Parker on drums. Molly Werts McDonald, a player in the first violin section of the RPO, will join the Freedom Trio for the concert. Freedom Trio's original compositions incorporate jazz, rock, classical, blues, gospel, and Indian classical music. The evening begins with a Casa Larga wine sampling from 5:00-8:00; music will fill the Bowl from 6:00-7:00 PM. Our emcee for the evening is Reverend Julius "JD" Jackson, Jr, known throughout Rochester for his ministry and community work. He is currently pastor of the United Church of Pittsford and an HPC board member. Freedom Trio emerged in 2013 when Herb, Peter and Joe combined their honed and varied musical backgrounds and "decided to put together the band we always wished for but never had. The music is groovy, and sometimes weird, but you will get it and we think you'll love it!" (Rain location: Asbury First Methodist Church, 1050 East Ave, Rochester 14607.)
