The Courant's venerable jazz critic reports today that Paul Brown will no longer produce his wonderful Monday Night Jazz Series in Hartford's Bushnell Park. Brown, who wants to focus on playing/teaching, has brought free, outside jazz concerts to Hartford for the past 40 years. He may also be tired of the constant funding grind required to keep the series afloat each summer. Sad. No reports yet whether someone or some organization will try to step in.
