Rodney Jones

August 9 – 7:30 PM

Rodney Jones, a revolutionary force in the realm of jazz guitar, redefines tradition with a fearless innovation that echoes the pioneering spirit of John Coltrane and McCoy Tyner. He is a 2024 Guggenheim Fellow for Music Composition.

Born into a world pulsating with the rhythms of New Haven, Connecticut, in 1956, Jones’s journey is a testament to the transformative power of music. Raised in a household where the echoes of the blues mingled with the intellectual pursuits of academia, he absorbed the rich tapestry of influences that would shape his singular style.

But perhaps Jones’s greatest contribution lies in his role as a torchbearer for future generations of jazz musicians. As a professor at esteemed institutions such as The Juilliard School and The Manhattan School of Music, he has dedicated himself to passing on the torch of innovation to the next generation.
