Some of Green's best work has been in the trio format, historically a configuration that has been one of the most popular in the advancement of jazz. The ensemble featured here is made up of bassist David Wong and drummer Rodney Green. Benny Green has been performing at the Kuumbwa Jazz Center for more than 35 years. He was introduced to the stage while in the ensembles of Betty Carter and Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers. Since then, Green has tried to make a point of playing the Northern California venue yearly. Begun as a non-profit and festival in 1975, Kuumbwa has maintained a steady presence in the jazz world as one of the premier jazz venues in the United States.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Introduction \u003cbr\u003e1.2 The St. Vitus Dance \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Announcement \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Down Under \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Martha's Prize \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Sixth Avenue \u003cbr\u003e1.7 50-21 \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Chant \u003cbr\u003e1.9 Pittsburgh Brethren \u003cbr\u003e1.10 Twisted Blues\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudio Sample:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n                                           \u003ci\u003eAll soundclips are provided by Tidal and are for illustrative purposes only.
