The Irish won’t be the only lucky ones this Sunday, St. Patrick’s Day.
The Polyrhythms Third Sunday Jazz Series presents the Lynne Hart Trio at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of the Quad Cities (UUCQC), 3707 Eastern Avenue, Davenport, for a 3 p.m. workshop and 5 p.m. concert on Sunday, March 17.
Hart (on saxophone and clarinet) will offer the workshop and all three musicians (with Pat Smith on guitar, and Richard Wagor on bass) will perform the 5-7 p.m. concert. They include jazz standards and modern updates of early jazz classics. And do not be surprised if they serve up a few Irish tunes as well, according to an event release.
