Led by trombonist and composer Scott van Gemert, the Unbroken Trio plays original music that focuses on the collective sound of the ensemble. Also featuring Theo Carbo (guitar) and Maddison Carter (drums and percussion), these three unique musical voices come together to create an array of improvised sounds in a highly interactive setting, focussing on a unified and melodic approach to music creation. For this special MJC performance they will present their recently released 9-movement suite 'SPARK'.

Stimulating pianist/composer Joe O’Connor, winner of the 2013 National Jazz Piano Award and recipient of the 2016 PBS Young Elder of Jazz Commission, will perform a middle solo set.
