MCG Jazz Nights at the Omni William Penn presents jazz musician and band leader Dr. John Wilson and his septet on Thursday, February 22, 2006 at 7:00 & 9:00 PM. Wilson, who played trumpet with some of jazz's legendary performers for 25 years then brought his considerable talent and credentials to Duquesne's Mary Pappert School of Music in 1972. Wilson also contributed arrangements for several critically acclaimed MCG Jazz releases, including all 3 Nancy Wilson recordings: A Nancy Wilson Christmas, GRAMMY®-winning R.S.V.P., and 2006's GRAMMY®-nominated Turned to Blue.
"His arrangements and compositions are some of the most beautiful things you'd ever want to hear," said WDUQ-FM's Tony Mowod, the emcee for the Omni's jazz nights. "He has influenced many musicians and many students." Enjoy a 3-course gourmet meal and the smooth sounds of Dr. John Wilson Septet!
