During high school\, I played weekly with his band in South Orange and got to play and meet most of the living jazz masters. When I was 18\, John brought me to Russia to play my first gig with the Dizzy Gillespie All-Star Big Band.” \n\n\n\nSherman is also a passionate educator\, teaching privately and conducting clinics worldwide. His contributions to jazz have earned him recognition as a versatile and talented musician. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe Back Deck Returns!\n\n\n\nEntering its sixth year\, the popular Back Deck concert series returns with a robust season of performances featuring big international names and regional superstars in jazz\, classical\, and genres in-between.
