The Music of Billy Strayhorn
November 5-6
Whether working as Duke Ellington's key collaborator or on his own, Billy Strayhorn was jazz's leading romantic, as shown in the tender and sensual "Lush Life," and with "Take the A Train" he wrote some of the hardest-swinging tunes of all time. Performed by the JLCO with Wynton Marsalis, plus guest vocalist José James.
Bird with Strings
March 11-12
In 1950, Bird with Strings was the recording that transformed Charlie Parker into a pop superstar. Sixty years later those orchestrations, like the hit singles "Just Friends" and "April in Paris," still sound brilliant and fresh.
The Music of Bud Powell & Earl Hines
April 29-30
Pianist Marcus Roberts and his ensemble take us on a journey through the compositions and breakthroughs of Earl "Fatha" Hines and Earl "Bud" Powell, two powerful pianists who brought the instrument into the modern age.
