11th Annual Robert ‘Bootsie’ Barnes Jazz Series featuring Saxophonist Tim Warfield
Celebrate Jazz Appreciation Month with the Blockson Collection in partnership with Bright Hope Baptist Church.
Each year we celebrate the extraordinary heritage and history of America’s art form: JAZZ. Join us in honoring Philadelphia jazz legend, Robert ‘Bootsie’ Barnes with a performance of classic jazz compositions by premier saxophonist Tim Warfield.
Tim Warfield, Jr., a native of York, Pennsylvania, began studying the alto saxophone at age nine. He switched to tenor saxophone during his first year at William Penn Sr. High School where he participated in various musical ensembles winning many jazz soloist awards, including second out of forty competitors at the Montreal Festival of Music in Canada. After high school, Warfield attended Howard University in Washington, D.C. for two years before leaving to lead and co-lead groups in the Central Pennsylvania and Baltimore/Washington areas.
