Return to NJJS

Monday, August 2, 8 PM. The world-renowned stride piano player Neville Dickie returns from London. Punishingly fast and powerful, yet melodic and entertaining. Fans feel some sympathy for the piano! "He has a left hand which, for sheer speed and total accuracy, will take your breath away." Seemingly relaxed, he makes it all look easy.

Tuesday, August 3, 8 PM. The enormously popular Paris Washboard is back, for an East Coast exclusive! Jeff Barnhart is their guest on piano, plus regulars Daniel Barda (trombone), Alain Marquet (clarinet) and Stephane Seva playing exciting percussion. They've won nearly every European award possible, and are popular players as individuals with other bands too.

Weekday concerts at The Bickford are one long set, from 8 to 9:30 PM, allowing working people to attend and still get home at a decent hour. The tab is reasonable too: only $15 in advance, $18 at the door (less for Morris Museum members). Pick up your prepaid tickets in the express line that night (suggested), or have them mailed for $1 per order (if you insist). Ticket info below.

The New Jesey Jazz Society is a proud co-sponsor of Jazz at the Bickford Theater.


All concerts start 8 pm. Ticket info below.
