Jazz Beat: Rob Scheps and Roger Rosenberg, at the Broadway Jazz Club

Twice a year, tenor saxophonist Rob Scheps — a Kansas City native and a New York transplant — returns home, usually bringing with him a special guest musician of great talent. On this trip, he’s joined by baritone saxophonist Roger Rosenberg, who has worked with such superstars as Sarah Vaughan, Miles Davis, Quincy Jones and Gerry Mulligan during his 30-year career. Since 2006, Rosenberg has toured as a member of Steely Dan. This week offers two chances to hear Scheps and Rosenberg: Thursday at the Broadway Jazz Club with pianist Roger Wilder, bassist Bob Bowman, drummer Brian Steever, plus singer Angela Hagenbach on a few numbers, and Friday at Lucky Brewgrille with Bowman and guitarist Ron Carlson.
