The Muse Jazz Collective presents "Now’s The Time: A Tribute to Charlie Parker".

Join us Sunday September 14 at 7:00 PM for an unforgettable evening of soaring melodies, daring improvisation, and electric energy as the Muse Jazz Collective pays tribute to one of jazz’s most revolutionary voices: Charlie “Bird” Parker.

Emerging in the 1940s, bebop was more than just fast tempos and dizzying chord changes. It was resistance set to rhythm—a bold declaration of artistic independence by Black musicians refusing to be background entertainment in segregated nightclubs. In a world that demanded simplicity and subservience, bebop demanded complexity, mastery, and freedom.

Charlie Parker, along with fellow visionaries like Dizzy Gillespie, Thelonious Monk, and Max Roach, reclaimed jazz as an art form, shifting it from dance music to deep music—music that made you think, listen, and feel.

This tribute concert celebrates the genius and grit of a man who changed the sound of American music forever. Experience the fire and finesse of Bird’s legacy brought to life by some of the Bay Area’s most inspired jazz artists.

THE COLLECTIVE: We are a new community of Bay Area jazz artists, music-lovers and art enthusiasts seeking to awaken more beauty, love, and justice for the world through Jazz.

THE CONCERT: Starts at 7:00 PM Sunday September 14 at the Vineyard. Doors open 15 minutes prior. You are free to bring your own food or drink from any of the amazing restaurants within one or two blocks of the venue. the plaza. Plan to bring cups, wine cork, etc as these items are not available on-site. Anyone drinking alcohol must be 21yrs or older.

- There will be a Q&A at the end of the performance, so as you listen think of some questions about the music, the musicians, the history, the songwriters, or anything else that comes to mind.

- Lastly, be sure to join the collective by subscribing to the newsletter and tag us on social media.

THE VENUE: The Vineyard is on Todos Santos Plaza in downtown Concord. This concert venue is tied to the history of jazz through Dave Brubeck - who grew up on this site in Concord - and was one of the first musicians to fight for a racially integrated band.
