With roots in bebop and the blues, Davis’ music has evolved into what the saxophonist has described as neo-bop. The New Orleans native studied under the instruction of Ellis Marsalis and honed his art alongside jazz greats like Wynton Marsalis, Jack McDuff, Cecil Payne and others. This season, the Naples Philharmonic Jazz Orchestra welcomes Davis for an evening of jazz music straight out of the Crescent City.
