SUMMARY:FURNISHING JAZZ w/ pianist Chris Gestrin
DESCRIPTION:FURNISHING JAZZ\, is a downtown jazz chamber concert series of elegant sounds in elegant surroundings.\n\nWith proceeds benefiting the Victoria Women’s Transition House\, FURNISHING JAZZ presents ‘listening room’ concerts on select Fridays through Fall-Winter 2026 at Luxe Home Interiors (564 Yates Street).\n\nFriday\, December 4th (730pm) – pianist Chris Gestrin on Fender Rhodes & Moog bass\nConcerts start at 7:30pm (doors at 7:00pm)\n\nHonouring jazz pianists’ electric & eclectic spirits and their classic ‘70s sounds\, Chris Gestrin plays on the Fender Rhodes piano with classic Moog synth bass.\n\nChris Gestrin: “I play piano\, organ\, synths\, any other ‘black & whites’—but the Rhodes electric piano has long been a major part of my sound. My Grade 11 band teacher introduced me to it (the school’s had been collecting dust)\, along with a cassette by The Crusaders\, which featured Joe Sample playing the Rhodes. Around then I also dug the late-60s Miles Davis recordings that featured the Rhodes\, usually played by Herbie Hancock or Chick Corea—and also Chick’s first Return to Forever album. The Rhodes is a beautiful & dynamic instrument\, enabling expressivity both soft & subtle and all-out aggressive\, the latter often via effects pedals. Despite quality emulations of the Rhodes\, I have spent many years hauling this heavy instrument to all manner of gigs\, as an actual Rhodes’ sound is unmatchable!”\n\nBefitting FURNISHING JAZZ’s jazz bar vibe\, and thanks to generous sponsors\, wine\, a signature cocktail\, and Sirene chocolate will be available for purchase.
