David Craig/Woody Witt | Music of Keith Jarrett's American and European Quartets

Join us for a live taping and listening-room concert for David Craig/Woody Witt | Music of Keith Jarrett's American and European Quartets!

Woody Witt - Tenor/Soprano Saxophones
Ben Clifton - Piano
David Craig - Bass
Graeme Francis - Drums

Longtime collaborators David Craig (bass) and Woody Witt (saxophone) have shared the bandstand on countless gigs and recording projects over the past 35 years. For this special project, they’ve assembled a dynamic new quartet featuring two of Houston’s most exciting recent arrivals—Ben Clifton on piano and Graeme Francis on drums.

Together, the group explores the powerful legacy of Keith Jarrett’s European and American Quartets. Far from a simple tribute, this project reflects the deep influence these recordings have had on each member’s musical voice. Jarrett’s adventurous spirit, lyricism, and rhythmic vitality have left a lasting imprint on their own compositions and artistic growth.

This performance is both a reflection and a renewal—an homage to the sounds that shaped their journey, and a fresh take on music that continues to inspire.
