Q'd Up celebrates 4th CD release with concert Jan. 20

Q'd Up, the Brigham Young University School of Music’s faculty jazz quintet, will celebrate its recently released fourth CD, “Quintessence,” during a special concert Wednesday, Jan. 20, at 7:30 p.m. in the Madsen Recital Hall.

Tickets are $6 and can be purchased online at byuarts.com, by phone at (801) 422-4322 or in person at the Fine Arts Ticket Office.

During the performance, Q'd Up will take a retrospective look at a smattering of original material by band members Steve Lindeman and Jay Lawrence while also exploring inventive improvisation on some classic jazz standards, according to quintet member Ron Brough.

Q’d Up members include Ray Smith on reeds, Steve Lindeman on keyboard, Matt Larsen on bass and two drummer-percussionists, Ron Brough and Jay Lawrence.
