    About This Event

    The Tony Leone Quintet, led by drummer Tony Leone, performs its bop- and post‑bop–rooted repertoire in the close, late‑night room at Smalls Jazz Club. Their arrangements move quickly between written figures and open improvisation, favoring steady timekeeping and ensemble balance so solos emerge from the groove rather than sit on top of it.
