John Dalton’s Sphere of Influence at Lilypad

In this performance on Thursday, Sept. 14, Boston based musician, composer and educator John Dalton is joined by Erik Van Dam (saxophones), Tatiana Castro Mejía (piano) and Evan Palmer (bass and double reeds). Lemuel Marc (trumpet) will also join as a special guest. This Lilypad show is part of This Music (TM) Series, a Boston musician’s initiative to recognize the creativity of many who haven’t been given the stage as leaders, often younger than the jazz scene veterans; those with acknowledgement who can create a new project and musical ideas; and the unsung “gems” who aren’t in the public eye and deserve to be. The emphasis is on the freer forms and the adventurous, to help find a “home."
