MICHAEL FEINSTEIN and ANN HAMPTON CALLAWAY
From the joyous cacophony of New York’s Tin Pan Alley to the music of America’s greatest songwriters – Berlin, Gershwin, Kern and Porter—this music is celebrated globally as the American Songbook.

No singer today is better identified with the American Songbook than the platinum-selling Michael Feinstein.   As vocalist, pianist, educator, and TV personality, Michael defines the genre.

Ann Hampton Callaway, multi-platinum recording artist, Broadway star, and Tony Award nominee, joins Michael for this evening’s celebration.

PONCHO SANCHEZ and TIEMPO LIBRE
Latin music and jazz have enjoyed a long and happy association since they came together. When the legendary Be Bop innovator Dizzy Gillespie was introduced to the great Cuban percussionist Chano Pozo, together they created the music we call—Latin Jazz!

 The exciting performances by Grammy winner and celebrated conguero  Poncho Sanchez demonstrate to audiences why he is considered one of the leading percussionist in the world.

Grammy-nominated Tiempo Libre, a group of young musicians now based in Miami, all hail from Cuba. The group’s unique style of Cuban timba music combines elements of Son, Afro-Cuban beats, and jazz.

This evening’s pairing is so explosive it will remind everyone why Miami is the center of the hottest Latin music scene in the world.

KEITH JARETT, GARY PEACOCK and JACK DEJOHNETTE
Keith Jarrett, multi-platinum-selling artist and Downbeat Lifetime Achievement Award winner, moves effortlessly as a virtuoso pianist between classical and jazz. Jarrett came onto the scene in the 1960s with jazz great Art Blakey and then with the iconic Miles Davis. He became a star in his own right with his historic solo performances and with his all-star jazz trio.

This evening’s performance will feature the legendary Keith Jarrett Trio, with bassist Gary Peacock and drummer extraordinaire, Jack DeJohnette.

“Side A: Acoustically Speaking” Wallace Roney, the phenomenal trumpeter and carrier of the Miles Davis torch, was given his horn by Miles himself in 1983 and pays tribute to the master this evening with bass legend and multi Grammy  winner Ron Carter and an all-star band.
