… MEP program director  Murray Jackson performing with the Brendan Clarke  Quartet, this Friday night March 6 at the Sydney jazz venue the Foundry 616 in Harris St, Ultimo. The line-up is Brendan Clarke (bass) and Andrew Gander (drums) with special guest Ben Hauptmann on guitar, but for MEP members the star is likely to be Murray, seen for a change off the podium and demonstrating a different set of skills playing alto sax. Under-18s are welcome at the Foundry, they just need be accompanied by an adult and seated at a table – dinner’s available and  there’s also a concession for students. For more information call the Foundry 616 (ph 02 9211 9442) or visit here; buy tickets here and read about  (and listen to) Brendan Clarke here.
