Faculty members perform at Fillmore Street Jazz fest | ||||
July 3, 2003
The Hafez Modir Quartet, led by Assistant music Professor Hafez Modirzadeh on tenor saxophone and featuring Lecturer Akira Tana on drums, will perform from 2:40 to 3:25 p.m. Saturday on the Ellis Street Stage. The performance coincides with the release of the quartet’s new CD, “Dandelion.” Modirzadeh, co-director of the Jazz and World Music Studies Program in SFSU’s School of Music and Dance, has spent the last two decades combining genres of jazz and world music. He leads the SFSU student Creative World Ensemble, which incorporates musical styles from many corners of the world, from the United States to Europe to the Middle East.
The Fillmore Street Jazz Festival spans 12 blocks of Fillmore Street from Jackson to Eddy and runs from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. The festival features three stages of nonstop music, more than 300 arts and crafts booths and a wide selection of food and beverages. --
