- **Event Name**: Christian McBride & Ursa Major
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 15 Feb, 2026 at 06:30 pm – Sun, 15 Feb, 2026 at 11:00 pm
- **Event Description**: CHRISTIAN MCBRIDE &amp; URSA MAJOR to perform Sunday, February 15, 2026, in the Longworth-Anderson Series at historic Memorial Hall!

Christian McBride is a 9-time Grammy-winning bassist, composer, and bandleader.  He is the artistic director of the historic Newport Jazz Festival, the New Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC), the TD James Moody Jazz Festival, and the National Jazz Museum in Harlem.  McBride is also a respected educator and advocate for youth, and serves as artistic director of Jazz House KiDS and the Jazz Aspen Snowmass Summer Sessions.  In addition to artistic directing and consistent touring with his ensembles, he hosts NPR’s “Jazz Night in America” and “The Lowdown: Conversations with Christian” on SiriusXM.  Whether behind the bass or away from it, McBride is always part of the music.  From jazz to R&amp;B, and pop/rock and hip-hop/neo-soul to classical, he is a luminary with one hand ever reaching for new heights, and the other extended in fellowship—and perhaps the hint of a challenge—inviting us to join him.

In Ursa Major, McBride is joined by four rising young master instrumentalists including saxophonist Nicole Glover, guitarist Ely Perlman, pianist Mike King, and drummer Savannah Harris.
