Since 2002\, Gordon has played and toured with a broad genre of musicians\, including The Headhunters\, Steve Turre (Woody Shaw)\, Mike Clark (Herbie Hancock)\, Donald Harrison\, Jr.\, Shannon Powell (Harry Connick\, Jr.)\, Dr. Mondre Moffett\, Bobby Shew\, Cyrus Chestnut (Betty Carter)\, Abiodun Oyewole (The Last Poets)\, Victor Atkins (Elvin Jones)\, Adonis Rose (Nicholas Payton)\, Wessell Anderson (Wynton Marsalis)\, Wayne Henderson (The Crusaders)\, Delfeayo Marsalis & The Uptown Jazz Orchestra\, Tyrone Jefferson (James Brown and the JB’s)\, Ivan Hampton (Janet Jackson)\, Christian Scott\, and more. Gordon attended Shenandoah Conservatory in Winchester\, VA to pursue Jazz/Classical piano and percussion. Throughout the years\, Gordon has pursued the education of music to all ages\, with teaching affiliations that include The New Orleans Jazz Institute (NOJI)\, Community School of the Arts\, Queens University (Charlotte\, NC)\, Central Piedmont Community College (Charlotte\, NC)\, Smith Language Academy\, and has had many opportunities to present masterclasses regionally and globally. Gordon was musical director for the production “Miles and Coltrane: The Blue Sessions” written/produced by On Q Productions/Concrete Generation/Stephen Gordon\, which toured nationwide.  Check out more about Stephen Gordon at https://stephenrgordon.com/  \nFree Event\nDonations and tips appreciated.   Enjoy the healing power of music!
