Two performances 6pm and 8:30pm.

A superlative jazz master who truly needs no introduction, living legend Benny Golson graces the Dazzle stage and performs hallowed compositions from his storied career.

Multitalented and internationally famous jazz legend—and composer, arranger, lyricist, producer, and tenor saxophonist of world renown—Benny Golson was born in Philadelphia, PA, on January 25, 1929. Few jazz musicians can claim to be true innovators, and even fewer can boast of a performing and recording career that literally redefines the term “jazz”, but Golson is one of those elite few. Raised with an impeccable musical pedigree, Golson has played in the bands of such jazz greats as Benny Goodman, Dizzy Gillespie, Lionel Hampton, Earl Bostic, and Art Blakey
