From June 4-14, we are going virtual and bringing music directly to you with the Burlington ReDiscover Jazz Festival—11 days of jazz in partnership with Vermont PBS, VPR, and Burlington area restaurants. Enjoy this archival performance by Melissa Aldana & Crash Trio on Vermont PBS (June 7 at 8 pm) or live streaming on Facebook and YouTube (June 8 at 6 pm).

Chilean tenor saxophonist Melissa Aldana is winner of the prestigious 2013 Thelonious Monk International Jazz Saxophone Competition and the first female instrumentalist to take first prize. A teenage standout on the Chilean jazz scene before attending Berklee College of Music, Aldana has a big, fierce sound with range that’s “controlled and loose, old and new” (New York Times). For Crash Trio, the 27 year-old has enlisted fellow Chilean Pablo Menares on bass and the astonishing drummer Jochen Rueckert to support her meteoric sonic flights. Don’t miss Aldana as she leads one of the most exhilarating jazz combos around.
