Paul McCandless and Charged Particles Play the Music of Lyle Mays

About

For decades, Lyle Mays was the pianist with superstar jazz guitarist Pat Metheny and his lifelong composing partner. Together, they created a sparkling new sound in jazz and packed in thousands of listeners each night for three-hour concerts all around the world. This year, we lost Mays much too early, at age 66. In addition to his collaboration with Metheny, he released a series of records of his own compositions with jazz luminaries. In this concert, Mays’ collaborator and Bay Area legend, saxophonist Paul McCandless, will collaborate with Charged Particles to bring Lyle’s music alive, in a tribute to the man who has often been lauded as a true genius of jazz.
