Info zu Tenthish, Live in New York

Recorded at New York's Mezzrow, in the heart of Greenwich Village, the Jeb Patton Trio delights with clever arrangement of jazz classics and some lesser known gems from the likes of Thad Jones and Phineas Newborn Jr. Tenthish was recorded in front of an audience of 35 invited guests and the trio including bassist David Wong and drummer Rodney Green are clearly enjoying the proceedings.

Jeb Patton
Described as both a “young phenom…on piano” and an “absolute great,” Jeb Patton has earned a well-regarded reputation in the international jazz community. The multi-talented Patton is known as a “player of great expression” and “not one to tread the predictable,” as well as a “simpatico accompanist” for The Heath Brothers, an “innovative” arranger, and one who “cuts…[an] impressive swath on his composition, ‘Hanna’s Mood,'” a tribute to his late teacher, Sir Roland Hanna.

Jeb Patton graduated magna cum laude with a Bachelor of Arts and Sciences degree with a major in music from Duke University, where he studied piano with Tibor Szasz, Douglas Buys, and Jane Hawkins. As a member of the Duke Jazz Ensemble under Paul Jeffrey, he performed with and/or arranged for more than 60 professional jazz artists, including 48 musicians from New York and more than 12 international jazz musicians from Italy, Monaco, and Portugal.

Studying under Sir Roland Hanna and Jimmy Heath, Jeb earned his Master of Arts degree, summa cum laude, in 1997 from the Aaron Copland School of Music, Queens College, City University of New York, where he also received the Louis Armstrong Award for composition from the ASCAP Foundation.

Since graduating, Jeb has toured throughout the United States and abroad with the Heath Brothers and with Jimmy Heath’s Generations Quintet, performing in theaters, festivals, concert halls, colleges, and clubs.

Inspired by the late Sir Roland Hanna, Patton is also very involved with classical music.

These concerts featured Ellington’s concerto, A New World A-Comin’ arranged for chamber ensemble, Haydn Piano Trio in Eb major, and a premiere of a chamber piece by Michael Berkeley. In addition, Patton performed Ellington’s concerto with the Queens College Orchestra in honor of Sir Roland Hanna, and has performed extensively with Coleridge-Taylor Perkinson’s New Black Music Repertory Ensemble. Patton studied classical piano with Lawrence Schubert.

Presently, when Jeb is not on the road, he teaches piano, ear training, transcription, and improvisation at Queens College and Five Towns College. He is also part of the faculty at NJPAC’s Jazz for Teens program. In the field of jazz education, Jeb has two books published by Chuck Sher: An Approach to Comping, Vol. 1 and 2.
