- Rob Scheps saxophone/flute
- Wes Georgiev piano
- Patrick Golichnik bass
- Tim Rap drums
Two generations of Eugene-born jazz musicians will take the stage together at the Jazz Station on March 17th, 2023 in downtown Eugene, Oregon.
Rob Scheps is a world-renowned saxophonist and flutist. His performance credits include shows and tours with Ray Charles, Buddy Rich, Linda Ronstadt, Liza Minnelli, Gil Evans Orchestra, Lou Rawls, Bobby Rydell, Bill Watrous, Julius Hemphill and Clark Terry.
Wes Georgiev is a bright star on the Portland jazz scene. He began performing with Scheps at the age of 20 and has shown himself to be a fine accompanist, a sensitive ensemble player, a creative improviser, and an incendiary swinging soloist. His Bulgarian-American heritage informs his playing with soul and wit.
This concert will feature swinging versions of jazz songs associated with spring, with a little dash of Irish music in honor of St. Patrick.
