New York Voices’ Darmon Meader to Join 2011 Jazz at Naz Faculty

We’re delighted to announce that Darmon Meader, founder, composer, musical director, chief arranger, vocalist and guiding spirit of the legendary New York Voices will be be joining the Tritone Jazz at Naz faculty, July 24-29.

And oh yeah, he’s also a killing sax player, an outstanding teacher, and a great guy.

As a member of New York Voices, Darmon has released numerous recordings on the GRP, RCA/Victor, Concord and MCGJazz labels.

In 2008, he also released his much anticipated debut solo CD, And So Am I, a collection of jazz standards and original works that reflects his varied interests and skills as a singer, saxophonist, writer and arranger.

New York Voices founder Darmon Meader will coach Tritone Jazz at Naz vocalists and maybe play some big-band sax July 24-29.

In addition to New York Voices touring and recording commitments, Darmon is increasingly busy as a soloist, sideman, studio musician, and clinician at jazz workshops around the world.

At Jazz at Naz, he will be joining our pantheon of favorites, including guitarist Gene Bertoncini (feeling like a new man after his December back surgery), trumpeter Clay Jenkins, trombonist Mark Kellogg, pianist Dariusz Terefenko, bassist Ike Sturm, jazz raconteur Tom Hampson, and the energetic rhythmer Kristen Shiner-McGuire.  Drummer Rich Thompson will be rejoining the Jazz at Naz faculty after a couple summers off.
