Prez

The life story of Lester Young

Sat. Feb. 2nd at 8pm

Prez is the life story of Lester Young, one of the most accomplished jazz saxophonists in the history of jazz, who was known for his working partnership with Billie Holiday, among other luminaries. As most people enjoy music, very few fans ever know much about what a musician’s life is like once they leave the bandstand or walk out of a recording session. Prez will give insight to all the highs and lows of making a living as a professional musician and fulfilling one’s soul as a musical artist… and also trying to live a family life as a father and a husband.
