Friday, July 28, the Paul Dietrich Quintet will be at the historic Thrasher Opera House in Green Lake, playing a CD release concert for the group’s new album, Focus, just out this summer. The concert is at 7:30 p.m.; doors/bar open at 6:45.
Dietrich is a Midwest-based trumpet player, composer, arranger, educator, and the 2017 recipient of the Greater Madison Jazz Consortium’s Artistic Development grant. Constantly absorbing music from a wide range of influences, Paul creates music that synthesizes the sounds of classic and modern jazz, Western classical music, folk, progressive rock and other diverse genres.
