With Randy Ingram, Rufus Reid, and Joe LaBarbera.

Presented in partnership with Puddingstone, join at JAC for an intimate evening of jazz celebrating the music, sound, and enduring influence of Bill Evans, one of the most beloved pianists and composers in modern jazz. Led by acclaimed pianist and composer Randy Ingram, this tribute project brings together a remarkable trio featuring legendary bassist Rufus Reid and drummer Joe LaBarbera, who was the last drummer in Evans’s trio.

The concert coincides with Ingram’s forthcoming album, Sound Within: A Celebration of Bill Evans, a deeply personal homage to an artist who has long shaped his musical imagination. Rather than simply recreating Evans’s style, Ingram approaches the tribute as a search for sound, feeling, and interiority: the qualities that made Evans’s playing so quietly transformative. With Reid and LaBarbera, the project honors Evans’s lyrical phrasing, harmonic depth, and spacious sense of ensemble dialogue while allowing each musician’s voice to emerge fully in the present.
