The SFJAZZ Center in San Francisco has announced its 2016–17 concert season and featured among the performers taking the Miner Auditorium stage in the venue's fifth anniversary season are Pat Metheny; Brad Mehldau, joined by his Trio, Joshua Redman, and Mark Guiliana; and Emmylou Harris.

Pat Metheny launches the season with Opening Night and Opening Week concerts, presenting An Evening with Pat Metheny, September 8–11, 2016. He will be joined by drummer Antonio Sánchez, bassist Linda Oh, and pianist Gwilym Simcock. The quartet is currently on tour in Europe.

Brad Mehldau revisits his 2010 double album Highway Rider in four performances, October 6–9, 2016. As on the album, Mehldau will be joined by his Trio (bassist Larry Grenadier and drummer Jeff Ballard), label mate Joshua Redman on tenor and soprano saxophone, and a chamber orchestra led by conductor Dan Coleman. Another frequent collaborator of Mehldau's, drummer Mark Guiliana, will take part in these live shows as well. The New York Times called the album Highway Rider "his grandest effort yet." The Guardian said it's "the real deal."

Continuing the collaborative spirit, Emmylou Harris joins Rosanne Cash, one of this season's Resident Artistic Directors at SFJAZZ, and Lucinda Williams for four performances, May 18–21, 2017.

    Composer and trumpeter Ambrose Akinmusire’s honey from a winter stone is out January 17, 2025, on Nonesuch Records. The album, which Ambrose calls a “self-portrait,” features improvisational vocalist Kokayi, pianist Sam Harris, Chiquitamagic on synthesizer, drummer Justin Brown, and the Mivos Quartet. Akinmusire says, “In many respects this entire work is inspired by and is an homage to the work of the composer Julius Eastman and his organic music concept." The opening track, “muffled screams,” is out now.
