Fred Hersch, an evening of solo piano...Live at the Edmond Town Hall

Proclaimed by Vanity Fair

magazine, “the most arrestingly innovative pianist in jazz over the

last decade or so,” 6-time Grammy nominee Fred Hersch balances his

internationally recognized instrumental skills with significant

achievements as a composer, bandleader, and theatrical conceptualist, as

well as remaining an in-demand collaborator with other noted

bandleaders and vocalists.  He was the first artist in

the 75-year history of New York's legendary Village Vanguard to play

week-long engagements as a solo pianist, and his second featured run is

documented on the 2011 release, Alone at the Vanguard.  

Hersch's virtuosity as a solo pianist will be on display at the Edmond, and Steinway has generously donated a 9' grand piano for this special evening.
