Harlem based piano phenom, Emmet Cohen, swings through town with his
all-star trio featuring Late Show with Stephen Colbert’s bassist,
Russell Hall, and drummer Kyle Poole recently on tour with Wynton
Marsalis. The trio is known for its range and uplifting dynamism,
representing Cohen’s “kaleidoscopic sense of musical narrative,”
as noted in Downbeat Magazine’s current edition. Audience members
can expect to be treated to a master class in stylistic
juxtapositions, including the melding of stride, blues, church, swing,
bebop, free, and contemporary styles, resulting in the innovative
sound of Jazz’s future. The Trio will also feature selections from
Cohen’s latest album releases, "Masters Legacy Series Vol. 1," which
features famed Miles Davis drummer Jimmy Cobb, and "Vol. 2",
showcasing revered acoustic bass pioneer, Ron Carter.
