Percussionist Edward Freytag is a legend around here. This is the musician who nurtured saxophonist Alan Wyatt and guitarist Shawn Perkinson as members of the school band when Edward led at Cleveland High School. A few years ago! Edward is a powerhouse as a player and a person, and Alan and Shawn are two of the finest musicians you'll hear anywhere.
Edward Freytag holds a B.S. in Music ED from the Univ. of TN Chattanooga and a M.M. in Jazz Percussion Performance from the Univ. of TN Knoxville where he studied with Jerry Coker and Keith Brown. He was Director of Bands at Cleveland HS and LaVergne HS in TN and is now Assoc. Director at Eagleville HS and Whitworth MS. He has taught at Lee Univ., Cumberland Univ., and Univ. of TN Chattanooga. He has performed with the Chattanooga and Knoxville Symphonies and served as percussion caption head for DCA Corps, Music City Legend. He is an adjudicator and clinician in both the jazz and perc areas.
Joining him for this evening of instrumental magic will be Alan Wyatt and Shawn Perkinson.
