Early Evening Jazz: Mary Petrich OpenHand Trio

Enjoy the beautiful sounds of Mary Petrich, Ted Olsen, and Toivo Hannigan playing creative music. They will feature the compositions of Paul Motian, Bennie Maupin, Marianne Trudel, Renee Rosnes, and others.

Saxophonist Mary Petrich enjoys a vibrant career as performer and teacher. Her deep love for creativity and improvisation has led her to explore traditional and non-traditional approaches, resulting in a very personalized style of playing and teaching music.

Ted Olsen is a double bassist from Minneapolis, MN with an extensive background as both a performer and composer. His compositions create bright moments of melody and harmonic color while still allowing for spontaneous interplay.

Toivo Hannigan is a guitarist, composer, and producer born and raised in the Twin Cities. After graduating from Berklee College of Music in 2020, Toivo moved back to the Twin Cities and has since furthered his career as a freelance musician. Toivo regularly performs with bands and artists including Jake Baldwin, JT Bates, Bryan and the Haggards, and Larry Wish.
