SUMMARY:JAZZ ROOM Presents: The Emmet Cohen Trio
DESCRIPTION:JAZZ ROOM Presents: The Emmet Cohen Trio\nMay 30th & 31st \nBack by popular demand\, Harlem-based Emmet Cohen Trio returns to Charlotte for a weekend of piano brilliance\, ranging from stride\, blues\, church\, swing\, bebop\, free\, and contemporary styles\, resulting in the innovative sound of Jazz’s future. \nMultifaceted American jazz pianist and composer Emmet Cohen is in the vanguard of his generation’s advancement of music and the related arts. Leader of the Emmet Cohen Trio and creator of the Masters Legacy Series\, Cohen is an internationally acclaimed jazz artist\, a dedicated educator\, the winner of the 2019 American Pianists Awards\, and a finalist in the 2011 Thelonious Monk International Piano Competition. Cohen headlines regularly at Jazz at Lincoln Center\, the Village Vanguard\, and Birdland\, and has appeared at the Newport Jazz Festival\, Monterey Jazz Festival\, and North Sea Jazz Festival among other renowned festivals. His artistry has taken him to venues and festivals in over 30 countries. Cohen’s entrepreneurial energies led to his developing “Live From Emmet’s Place\,” a live-streamed “Harlem rent party” that unites a worldwide audience via tens of millions of internet views. \nBesides leading the “Emmet Cohen Trio\,” Cohen has appeared regularly with Ron Carter\, Benny Golson\, Jimmy Cobb\, George Coleman\, Jimmy Heath\, Tootie Heath\, Houston Person\, Kurt Elling\, Billy Hart\, and Brian Lynch\, among others. Emmet Cohen is a YAMAHA Artist. Cohen is managed by Bandstand Artists and represented by Epstein Fox Performances. “When Cohen is in full flight\, with Poole slamming the kit around the room behind him\, he reminds me of Ahmad Jamal: not the genteel Jamal you hear on record\, but the wall-banging\, holy-shit Jamal I saw in concert a few years ago\, who rolled across the keyboard like a thunderstorm.” – Phil Freeman\, Stereogum \nA special thanks to Jim and Chris Drost for sponsoring this show. \nThe JAZZ ROOM provides a casual and intimate setting with tables and a full bar\, reminiscent of the classic jazz rooms of yesteryear. \nThank you to our JAZZ ROOM contributors: Bank of America\, South Arts\, Knight Foundation\, Arts & Science Council\, North Carolina Arts Council\, Alice L Walton Foundation\, Ford Foundation\, and the Infusion Fund.
