Second Sunday Jazz Affair

Pikes Peak Jazz And Swing Society is delighted to announce that the performers for their March 8 Second Sunday Jazz Affair will be Denver’s own Nelson Rangell Quartet featuring the renowned multi-instrumentalist, Nelson Rangell.

Jazziz magazine writes that Nelson Rangell is “an artist of depth, a master of song, and an improviser nonpareil.”

Saxophone Journal writes “He commands the alto saxophone with such authority there can be no denying that Rangell is a true artist,” and Flute Talk Magazine states “Nelson Rangell creates the impression that anything is possible when he improvises.”

Such praise is a confirmation of what contemporary jazz fans have known since the Denver based saxophonist emerged in the late 80s: that Rangell is one of the most exciting and diverse performers in the genre, equally adept at soprano, alto, and tenor saxophone, as well as being a genuine virtuoso on flute and piccolo.

There will also be dancing, door prizes, a cash bar plus a full buffet and dessert bar available for purchase.
