Great bassist in Montreal May 22nd, 23rd

A friend of mine is bringing bassist Oscar Stagnaro up from Boston (where he teaches at Berklee) to play a couple of shows at the Upstairs bar. He will also be doing a clinic on Saturday afternoon. Oscar is probably unknown to most of you as he specializes in various Latin styles. He has played with several Latin-jazz heavyweights and, having seen him play a few years ago, I can tell you he's worth seeing. It doesn't matter if you're not into Latin-jazz - I'm sure that any bass player would benefit from seeing this man play. I know that tickets are available from several sources including Steve's Music. PM me for more info. and I'll see what I can find out.

Never heard of him but always interested in hearing a great bassplayer. Who is he playing with?

Played a lot with Paco D'Rivera for one. If I lived in Montreal I'd be all over this.

I really wish I could go to this concert but I'm leaving for the weekend on friday so I won't be able to attend the show.

Anyway, there's still the Alain Caron clini the week after.

If you live in the Montreal area, go and check out Oscar Stagnaro. It's rare that a player of this caliber makes it to Montreal to give a clinic. I've been to several bass clinics in Montreal and was very disappointed in the turnout at each one. If more people don't get out to these things, players aren't going to bother giving them.
