Joey DeFrancesco - Yardbird Suite

The Best of Edmonton
Andrew Glover Sextet
Original Composition Night
Join one of Edmonton’s finest pianists, Andrew
Glover, in the company of some of Edmonton’s
best jazz players for an evening which features
some of Andrew’s highly original compositions.
Andrew’s compositions and arrangements
have been performed or recorded by John
Abercrombie, Anna Beaumont, Caroline Mae
Johnson, Jacek Kochan, Pat LaBarbera, Theresa
Lightfoot, George McFetridge, Don Thompson,
Jean-Pierre Zanella, and Alfie Zappacosta.
Six of the eleven compositions on Jack Semple’s
Grey and Yellow CD were written by Andrew, as
well as four songs for Dianne Donovan’s release
Yes or No. He was also a principal writer for the
Edmonton band Pazzport.
Andrew has recorded several of his own albums,
including the well-received Smooth (2007) and
Forward Motion (2005). In 2004, Andrew won the
Jazz City Commission project to compose one
hour of jazz music commemorating 25 years of
jazz festivals in Edmonton. In 2003, he toured
with Canadian jazz guitarist Jake Langley.
Andrew graduated from Grant MacEwan
Community College (now MacEwan University),
and studied solo piano with Adrian Chornowol
and Charlie Austin. Andrew has also worked
with Mike Rud, Kennedy Jensen, the Edmonton
Symphony Orchestra, Scott Hamilton and
Sheena Easton, among others. For over ten
years he toured extensively with the Big Miller
Band.
