This concert showcases some of the best talent in jazz, including Brenda Russell, Rick Braun, and Peter White. Leading the pack is Dave Koz. The latest contender for the instrumental pop saxophone throne, Koz came out of nowhere after his self-titled 1990 album made it onto the Billboard charts and stayed there for several weeks. He has more fire and intensity in his work than Kenny G and often sounds like a reworked David Sanborn. Koz plays instrumental pop covers, some upbeat tunes and generally sticks to the fusion production formula.
