For this encore Family Matinee performance, one of the Bay Area’s most treasured music educators and advocates delights our multigenerational audience at SFJAZZ with an eclectic set featuring blues, work songs, jazz standards and nursery rhymes. Pianist and “Pied Piper” Doug Goodkin and a cast of equally talented and committed musicians and educators share their joy of music-making in the quest for joy and social justice.
With a music education career spanning 4 decades, musician and Bay Area treasure Doug Goodkin celebrates the release of his new book—Stories Every American Should Know—by highlighting pieces of some of the 23 jazz musicians featured in the book. What a perfect way to introduce children to these American geniuses! All of the band members in this performance also happen to be music educators themselves, including soulful vocalist and special guest Rhonda Benin.
