Hot town, summer in the city...

It looks as if the summer jazz series in Hartford's Bushnell Park will not die after all. Courant jazz critic Owen McNally reports today that the Hartford Jazz Society will take over the management previously handled by renowned bassist/educator Paul Brown, while Prudential Financial and the Greater Hartford Arts Council will provide the financial support. The four-week series will feature:

July 7- Roy Campbell's TAZZ and Matthew Tripp's Trio
July 14- Jim Hobbs' Brothers of Heliopolis and Dominique Eade
July 28- Tim Berne's Bloodcount and William Parker Quintet
Aug 4- John McNeil/Bill McHenry Quartet and Gerald Cleaver's Violet Hour
