1st Set With Jon Irabagon Quartet

Showtimes:   6:00pm-7:15pm & 8:15pm-9:30pm

Named one of New York City's 25 Jazz Icons by Time Out New York, first generation Filipino-American Jon Irabagon's compositions rely on open dialogues with his fellow performers to create a gateway for communication and understanding. This interaction of notated material and strong improvisatory character is essential to Irabagon's musical vision.  His sets feature original compositions bringing together jazz, soul, funk and free improvisation in a personal and fun-loving way.  His quartet features some of Chicago's finest musicians in a continuous and expansive search for immediacy and group interplay.

After earning a Bachelor of Music from DePaul University, Irabagon continued his education by earning a Master of Arts from the Manhattan School of Music and completing post-graduate studies in the jazz program at Juilliard, where he received an Artist Diploma. However, Irabagon’s accomplishments do not end with his education. Irabagon was also the winner of the 2008 Thelonious Monk Saxophone Competition, winner of the Rising Star award in Downbeat Magazine for both alto and tenor saxophones, and the recipient of a Philippine Presidential Award, the highest civilian honor an overseas Filipino can receive in commemoration for their contributions to the perception of Filipinos worldwide.
