Originally from Winnipeg\, he played with Oscar Peterson for about 35 years – and there is a reason that OP loved playing with him so much. Oscar once said\, “To my way of thinking\, Dave Young is one of the most talented bassists on the jazz scene. His harmonic simpatico and unerring sense of time\, have kept him in the foreground of the jazz picture.” – Renee Rosnes\, five-time JUNO award winner\, Artistic Director of Oscar Peterson International Jazz Festival \nBio: Toronto-based and Winnipeg-born multiple award-winning bassist and composer Dave Young\, is\, without a doubt\, one of Canada’s most valuable and beloved musical exports. Whether he’s performing as part of a classical symphony\, or as an integral member of an iconic jazz trio (with the likes of the late Oscar Peterson)\, or leading any of his dynamic ensembles\, Dave remains a total musician\, with artistic soul in abundance. He first began studying the guitar and violin at age ten\, but a turn of events at his first gig (a University dance band) compelled him to pick up the bass. Equally comfortable in the worlds of orchestral classical music and jazz\, Dave is a multiple threat. As a classical musician\, he has been a member of The Edmonton Symphony\, The Winnipeg Symphony and The Hamilton Philharmonic. As a jazz artist\, he is a chameleon-like bassist\, who often shines brightest in collaborative efforts with other musicians. Because of his technical skill\, few bassists (jazz or otherwise) are able to dig in\, swing hard and still render a lyrical arco solo as Dave can. \nOne of Dave Young’s most beloved gigs was a five year stint (1961-66) as a member of iconic jazz guitarist Lenny Breau’s quartet. Recently\, Randy Bachman’s “Guitar Archives” label has released Bourbon Street – a LIVE recording of Dave and Lenny in duo format\, digitally restored and originally recorded on a primitive reel to reel at Toronto’s late\, lamented jazz venue. The list of musicians with whom Dave has shared the stage is a virtual “Who’s Who” of international jazz…including the late Oscar Peterson (with whom Dave had a thirty-five year musical relationship)\, Clark Terry\, Harry “Sweets” Edison\, Zoot Simms\, Joe Williams\, Oliver Jones\, Kenny Burrell\, Cedar Walton\, Hank Jones\, Nat Adderly\, Peter Appleyard\, Gary Burton\, Barney Kessell\, Ed Bickert\, Ranee Lee\, Marcus Belgrave\, Don Thompson\, Kenny Burrell and James Moody. \n— \nShowcasing top Canadian and international musicians in jazz\, blues\, and improvised music. We are excited to welcome you back to our jazz lounge following a $2.5 million transformation. The new theatre has the same great stage\, with a new sound system and expanded seating capacity for you to enjoy world-class music in downtown Hamilton! \nAll proceeds from ticket sales support the An Instrument For Every Child (AIFEC) program. \nFor more information about the Hamilton Music Collective and An Instrument For Every Child visit: hamiltonmusiccollective.ca \nParking is available in the parking lots.
