“Sorey continues to defy classification, constantly evolving and astounding with his versatility and range.” —All About Jazz

A celebrated drummer and composer, Tyshawn Sorey also acts as jazz archivist in his Walker debut. With a crate digger’s ear for the underappreciated, he surfaces little-known gems and makes historical material fresh—and thoroughly his own. The Pulitzer Prize winner is joined by two longtime collaborators, pianist Aaron Diehl and bassist Yasushi Nakamura, for the evening’s first concert, which draws on their albums Mesmerism (2022) and Continuing (2023). In the later program (ticketed separately), venerated alto saxophonist Greg Osby joins the trio for a mesmerizing set.
