A jazz guitarist has been added to the concert calendar at Utah State University and the guest has played and recorded with some of the greatest names in the music business, said USU music professor Mike Christiansen. Mark Elf, a jazz guitarist based in New York, is featured in concert March 12 at 8 p.m. in the Eccles Conference Center Auditorium.
Tickets are available at the door.
Christiansen said plans are being made to assemble a small rhythm section to perform with the guest guitarist. Bass and percussion will be added for the Logan event. I've dealt with him over the telephone, arranging his visit, and he is excited to come to Utah. Christiansen heads the guitar program at USU and brings a number of guest performers to campus every year. This gives the campus and Cache Valley communities a chance to hear some of the best performers out there, he said.
