Howard Theatre 5:00 PM
A saxophone takes center stage in Chris Mitchell’s Begging For Sax Tour, a live show built around the expressive range of one of jazz’s most distinctive instruments. The saxophonist brings his performance to The Howard Theatre for an evening that blends musicianship, storytelling, and a close connection between artist and audience. Mitchell’s approach places the instrument’s warmth and versatility at the heart of the experience, moving beyond a traditional concert format to explore the personality behind the sound. The Washington, DC stop welcomes listeners of all ages for a night focused on live performance, improvisation, and the atmosphere created when a skilled soloist leads the room.
