Third in the 2019 Shenson Faculty Concert Series, CMC piano, guitar, and theory faculty member Jono Kornfeld performs with the band Hop Sauce. Hop Sauce is a concoction of instrumental groove, funk and jazz, balancing improvisation with composition and a knack for fun, tasty jams. The core trio (Jeff Cleland on bass, Chris Gamper on drums and Jono Kornfeld on guitar) has a rich history of playing together going back nearly 30 years. Hop Sauce’s first CD, “Le Tasty,” features their diverse compositional prowess blended with an obvious love for in-the-moment playing and nimble improvisation.
This concert features the rarely-enjoyed quintet version of the group, with Simon Rochester on keyboard, and Daniel Heffez on saxophone.
