    About This Event

    Guitarist and composer John Scofield performs his "Electrospective" program at Town Hall, presenting material that traces his career of blending jazz with funk, blues, soul and rock. Known for collaborations with Miles Davis and recurring appearances at New York venues like the Blue Note, Scofield foregrounds improvisation and cross-genre approaches in his work.

    About Electrospective

    At Town Hall, John Scofield brings **Electrospective** to New York City as a focused look at his long-running relationship with electric guitar and the hybrid language it helped him build. The set draws on the porous borders between jazz, funk, blues, soul, and rock, a thread running through a career that has also intersected with Miles Davis’s electric-era orbit. Town Hall’s history as a civic concert room gives the music a clear frame: improvisation treated as public record. The program suggests that amplification can be a compositional tool, not just volume.
