19th Annual Deer Isle Jazz Festival at the Stonington Opera House.
Multifaceted American jazz pianist and composer Emmet Cohen has emerged as one of his generation’s pivotal figures in music. Possessing a fluid technique, an innovative tonal palette, and an extensive repertoire, Cohen plays with the command of a seasoned veteran and the passion of an artist fully devoted to his medium. His Masters Legacy Series, a celebratory set of recordings and interviews, provides master musicians of multiple generations a forum to transfer the unwritten folklore that is America’s unique musical idiom. Cohen believes playing jazz is “about communicating the deepest levels of humanity and individuality; it’s essentially about connections,” both among musicians and with audiences. Join this dynamic trio for a night of virtuosic delight and swinging sound. Featuring Jimmy Cobb on drums & David Wong on bass.
