SAXOPHONE LEGENDS: Ernie Watts plays John Coltrane, Charlie Parker, Sonny Rollins and more!

The saxophone is arguably the most recognizable symbol and sound in jazz. It can wail and scream with passion, as well as whisper softly your favorite melody. Saxophonist Ernie Watts joins the Charleston Jazz Orchestra October 19 at Charleston Music Hall to play the music of some of the most beloved saxophone legends of our time. A two time GRAMMY Award winner and long time member of the Tonight Show Orchestra, Watts has been featured on more than 500 recordings, to include projects by Pat Metheny, Herbie Hancock, and the Rolling Stones.
