Concert Aug. 9: David Sanborn, George Duke and Marcus Miller

This is your last chance to buy tickets to a concert this summer at the Gardens! The weather tonight will be perfect — partly cloudy, breezy and mild. Bring a picnic and some wine and enjoy these jazz legends under the stars. Buy tickets online today or at the gate tonight.

David Sanborn, George Duke and Marcus Miller
Tuesday, Aug. 9 – York Street
Doors at 6 p.m., concert starts at 7 p.m.

Tickets still available!

Here is another great pre-concert review, courtesy of Gardens’ member Rick Hum. 

George Duke (keyboards), Marcus Miller (bass) and David Sanborn (saxophone) are touring together as DMS; each a leader and composer in his own right. All three are music masters, critically acclaimed, commercially successful Grammy Award winners.

Did you get up and dance?

Concert season is over for the year both at our York Street and Chatfield locations. We had a dazzling array of talented musicians here again this year, and the Gardens have never looked better.

I wasn’t able to make it to all of the concerts, however at every show I was fortunate enough to attend I saw the same couple up and dancing in the area in front of the stage. At the second-to-last concert, I finally had the opportunity to meet these music aficionados. Rick Hum and his wife Karen, longtime members of the Gardens, along with a loyal group of friends, attend most of the concerts together. They do a little research on the various artists that play at the Gardens and talk about the artists’ backgrounds and history while enjoying their picnic dinner on the lawn before the concert.

Here are some 2009 concert reviews from Rick for you to enjoy, along with some helpful tips from him on attending concerts next year that I think you will find useful. Thanks, Rick, for your great insight. I’ll see you front and center at our first concert next year!
