Darius Jones (Wednesday and Thursday) Mr. Jones has the capacity for a proud, rafters-raising tone on alto saxophone, and as an improviser he’s fearless but disciplined. Last year he released “Man’ish Boy (A Raw & Beautiful Thing)” (AUM Fidelity), a serious debut featuring his pianoless trio, which he leads here on Wednesday and in the first set on Thursday. The second set on Thursday (and the entirety of his performance on July 30) will feature a quartet with the pianist David Bryant, the bassist Trevor Dunn and the drummer Ches Smith.
