Jazz: Mingus Dynasty at UCLA

MUSIC

Live up to the instrumental reputation of bassist-composer Charles Mingus? There’s a tall order for any group. But Mingus Dynasty pulls it off with an adventurous spirit and devotion to Mingus’ huge catalog (and the blessing of the legend’s wife, Sue, who helped assemble the group). Royce Hall, UCLA. 8 p.m. Fri. $20 to $60. https://www.uclalive.org
