A fearless improviser and visionary bandleader, Kenny is known for performances that balance deep respect for the jazz tradition with adventurous, modern artistic exploration. He is a founding member of acclaimed ensembles including the illicit sextet, Group 47, and What Would Monk Do?, while also leading his own celebrated quartets and quintets featuring many of the Twin Cities’ most sought-after jazz musicians.Beyond the bandstand, Kenny has played a major role in shaping the regional jazz scene as curator of weekly Saturday jazz series at both kj’s hideaway and the historic Black Dog Cafe, producing more than 400 live Saturday night jazz performances and helping cultivate one of the Midwest’s most vibrant jazz communities. In recognition of his lifelong dedication to the music, the Jazz Journalists Association named him a “Minnesota Jazz Hero” in 2019.As a recording artist, Kenny continues to push creative boundaries. His 2020 release Quartets on Shifting Paradigm Records showcased original compositions performed by four distinct ensembles of Twin Cities improvisers. In 2025, he followed with the acclaimed Blue Chunks, celebrated with a release performance at Dakota Jazz Club. The project explored Kenny’s innovative concept of assembling smaller musical “chunks” into larger suite-like forms, further cementing his reputation as a composer unafraid to challenge convention while remaining deeply rooted in the language of jazz.The ensemble assembled for this special tribute to Chuck Mangione draws from the same elite core of first-call musicians Kenny has featured in multiple sold-out performances dedicated to the music of John Coltrane as well as concerts centered on Kenny’s own original works. That shared musical history gives this performance extraordinary depth, chemistry, and artistic trust.Rather than simply recreating familiar radio hits, this concert reimagines Mangione’s beloved music through the lens of serious small-group jazz artistry — alive with daring improvisation, emotional nuance, and expansive musical conversation. The result promises to be both a heartfelt celebration of Mangione’s legacy and a thrilling exploration of how his compositions stand alongside the great modern jazz standards: timeless, sophisticated, joyful, and endlessly open to reinvention. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/minneapolis/chuck-mangione-tribute-featuring-the-steve-kenny-quintet/100001989801605165 - **Event Categories**: music, entertainment, art, live-music, concerts, contests, dog, storytelling - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 37.89, max: 49.05, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Minneapolis - **state**: MN - **country**: United States - **location**: Main Stage Showroom - **lat**: 45.0792034 - **long**: -93.2430078 - **full address**: Main Stage Showroom, 6161 Hwy 65 NE, Minneapolis, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Chuck Mangione Tribute featuring the Steve Kenny Quintet - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/947b716229c7e03d98c7740d3d8f639944316c0a43b0573d5473d65db71c067f-rimg-w1200-h600-dc018a79-gmir.jpg?v=1779200353 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Chuck Mangione Tribute featuring the Steve Kenny Quintet being held? - **A:** Chuck Mangione Tribute featuring the Steve Kenny Quintet takes place on Thu, 10 Sep, 2026 at 06:30 pm to Thu, 10 Sep, 2026 at 08:00 pm at Main Stage Showroom, 6161 Hwy 65 NE, Minneapolis, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Chuck Mangione Tribute featuring the Steve Kenny Quintet? - **A:** Chuck Mangione Tribute featuring the Steve Kenny Quintet is organized by Crooners Supper Club. - **Q**: What has been the experience of attendees at Crooners Supper Club's events? - **A:** Attendees have given Crooners Supper Club a rating of 5/5 based on reviews from early attendees on AllEvents.
