Brad Mehldau, Christian McBride, Marcus Gilmore
Join us for a rare opportunity to experience a special Concert Hall collab with three Grammy-winning jazz artists who rarely tour together.
One of the most lyrical voices of contemporary jazz piano, Brad Mehldau’s unique path embodies the essence of jazz exploration, classical romanticism and pop allure. He has worked with artists including Pat Metheny, Renée Fleming, and Joshua Redman, and garnered awards and admiration for his own compositions and re-workings of songs by The Beatles, Cole Porter, Radiohead, Paul Simon, and George Gershwin.
Bassist, composer, and bandleader Christian McBride fronts acclaimed ensembles including Inside Straight and The Christian McBride Big Band. From a kaleidoscope of jazz styles to R&B, and pop/rock, Latin, and hip-hop/neo-soul to classical, McBride’s expansive skills have produced nine Grammy awards. In addition, he is Artistic Director of the Newport Jazz Festival, Creative Chair for Jazz with the Los Angeles Philharmonic, and hosts National Public Radio’s Jazz Night in America.
Drummer and composer Marcus Gilmore – grandson of iconic drummer Roy Haynes – can be heard on the soundtrack for the film “Soul.” He has worked with Pharoah Sanders, Ravi Coltrane, Robert Glasper, Vijay Iyer, Derrick Hodge, Jill Scott, Norah Jones, Terrence Blanchard, Roy Hargrove, and Terrace Martin.
