SUMMARY:Christian Dillingham Jazz Quartet & Jason Patrick Miller
DESCRIPTION:Christian Dillingham \nSome artists you simply have to bring back. Grammy-winning bassist Christian Dillingham is one of them. A Rendezvous Arts favorite for years\, Christian returns to close our sixth season with music from his acclaimed record Cascades alongside brand-new compositions currently in the works. His quartet features a powerhouse lineup: saxophonist Lenard Simpson\, guitarist Dave Miller\, and drummer Greg Artry. Together\, they create music that is both rooted and forward-looking\, rich with groove\, lyricism\, and discovery. \nJason Patrick Miller\nPhotographer \nOn the visual side\, Jason Patrick Miller transforms Chicago through the eye of a pinhole camera. His images\, printed on metal and altered through scratching\, rust\, and texture\, reimagine the city as something both raw and timeless. Miller’s work captures the weight of steel and structure\, while revealing the beauty of impermanence. The improvisatory spirit of his process mirrors the spontaneity of jazz\, making his art a striking companion to Dillingham’s sound. \nPhotography etched in metal. Jazz alive with invention. It is the perfect pairing and a powerful finale to Season Six.

SUMMARY:Members of the St. Charles Singers with art by Tina Druce-Hoffman
DESCRIPTION:Members of St. Charles Singers \nMarch brings a first for Rendezvous: a vocal ensemble. Eight extraordinary voices from the St. Charles Singers will fill the stage\, led by conductor Jeff Hunt. This internationally touring choir has earned acclaim around the world\, yet they remain rooted in the western suburbs. Now\, they bring their artistry to Dixon\, Lake Forest\, and Chicago in a program that promises both power and intimacy. \nThe music is paired with the live art of Tina Druce-Hoffman\, a storyteller at heart whose plein-air paintings are infused with wonder\, folktale imagery\, and the magic of nature. During these performances\, Tina will create in real time\, responding to the sound and spirit of what she sees and hears. Her brushwork becomes part of the performance\, a visual echo of the music unfolding around her. \nMusic that soars. Art that responds in the moment. This is a Rendezvous Arts debut you’ll want to witness. \nTina Druce-Hoffman\nIllustrator/Plein Air Artist \nTina Druce-Hoffman’s career spans illustration\, graphic design\, and teaching\, with work featured in collectible card games\, books\, and countless exhibitions. She explores gouache\, watercolor\, etching\, and more\, always guided by insatiable curiosity. Whether outdoors capturing landscapes or at her easel crafting whimsical scenes\, her art invites us to pause\, reflect\, and enter an “elsewhere” just beyond the everyday.
