About this Event

Join Theophilus Reed and Thaddeus Tukes on July 16 at 7 p.m. for an intergenerational mix of jazz that blends traditional jazz standards with the modern rise and fall of chords that end with freer improvisation. Theo Reed is a veteran vocalist, pianist, arranger and composer. Thaddeus Tukes is a vibraphonist, composer, arranger, pianist and bandleader, and one who "brings poetry to the vibraphone" (Chicago Tribune). Tukes has released three albums under his self-owned label, Vibetown Studios. He performs as a bandleader and special guest with the Chicago Jazz Festival, Hyde Park Jazz Festival, South Side Jazz Coalition, Inc., and various Jazz clubs and ensembles throughout the country.

The concert will be held in Schulz Auditorium located in the Michael Paul Galvin Tower at Illinois Tech, 10 W. 35th Street. Parking is available in the Illinois Tech visitor lot on State Street between 35th St. and 33rd Street below the Green Line tracks.

For your safety and ours, masks that cover the nose and mouth must be worn during the performance regardless of your vaccination status.
