Collage Concert: Marc Dickman Jazz Quartet

The 2025/26 Romanza's Collage Concert Series

Presenting Musicians Affiliated with UNF's Jazz Program

The Romanza Festivale presents Romanza's Collage Concert Series on select Saturdays at 7:30 p.m. at the St. Augustine Waterworks. This season, Romanza is celebrating the wealth of talent found in the University of North Florida's (UNF) Jazz program. Each of the four Waterworks performances presents a different jazz ensemble affiliated with UNF.

Book your tickets and swing, tap your feet, and sway during the Romanza Collage concerts celebrating jazz and the jazz musicians who are professors, alumni, and friends of the UNF's jazz studies program.

These ticketed concerts are fundraisers for the annual Romanza Festivale, which offers four weeks of arts performances, exhibitions, and author conversations every spring in St. Augustine.

In November: Marc Dickman Jazz Quartet

On Saturday, November 8, from 7:30 to 9:15 p.m., Romanza presents the Marc Dickman Jazz Quartet

Led by Marc Dickman, the founding member of the Jazz Studies Division of the School of Music at the University of North Florida, the ensemble highlights music from 1945 to 1960—when Dizzy Gillespie and Charlie Parker ruled the airwaves and the dance floors. The quartet is known for a repertoire that includes jazz and pop standards interspersed with original music.

Marc Dickman plays trombone, valve trombone, and euphonium; Doug Matthews plays piano; Jack Miller plays drums; and fittingly, Claude Bass plays the bass. 

Admission: $30.00 per person. Purchase tickets in advance. 

When: From 7:30 to 9:00 p.m. on Saturday, November 8, 2025.

Where: St. Augustine Waterworks, 184 San Marco Avenue, St. Augustine, Florida 32084 

Getting There: While the address is 184 San Marco Avenue, the only driveway on San Marco is Exit Only, so you can not enter the Waterworks driveway from there. Access to the Waterworks is through the St. Augustine Main Library parking lot, on the opposite side of the complex. (Use 1960 North Ponce de Leon in your GPS.)
