SUMMARY:John Pizzarelli Presents "Dear Mr. Bennett" 
DESCRIPTION:GRAMMY®-winning guitarist\, vocalist\, and producer John Pizzarelli celebrates the legacy of the legendary Tony Bennett with Dear Mr. Bennett\, a heartfelt tribute released March 3\, 2026 via Green Hill Music. The recording features Pizzarelli’s trio\, bassist Mike Karn and pianist Isaiah J. Thompson\, performing timeless songs made famous by Bennett with warmth\, swing\, and lyrical beauty. For Pizzarelli\, Bennett was more than an influence. His father\, guitarist Bucky Pizzarelli\, frequently performed with the iconic singer\, and John later had the opportunity to accompany Bennett himself. The admiration was mutual; Bennett attended several of Pizzarelli’s performances and even sketched the artwork that appears on the album’s cover. Reflecting on Bennett’s enduring impact\, Pizzarelli says\, “Tony’s artistry was just so magnificent. And he was able to continually reinvent himself.” The trio will tour this repertoire worldwide throughout 2026 and 2027.

SUMMARY:Scintillating Brazilian Jazz~Walker\, Stagnaro\, Lubarsky\, Colon
DESCRIPTION:TRIAD+ celebrates the vibrant spirit of Brazilian jazz with an all-star quartet of internationally acclaimed musicians: drummer Mark Walker\, bassist Oscar Stagnaro\, pianist Maxim Lubarsky\, and saxophonist Edmar Colón. Originally formed as a trio by multi-GRAMMY and Latin GRAMMY winners Walker\, Stagnaro\, and Lubarsky\, the group expanded when Puerto Rican saxophonist Colón joined for a special performance at Boston’s GBH. Their electrifying program pays tribute to the legendary Brazilian composer Hermeto Pascoal\, whose genre-defying music blends Brazilian folk traditions\, jazz\, and fearless experimentation. The quartet’s recent release\, “Hermetic: A Tribute to Hermeto Pascoal Live at GBH”\, captures the adventurous spirit of this project. With deep roots in Latin jazz and decades of performance experience\, TRIAD+ brings Pascoal’s imaginative music to life through dynamic improvisation\, rhythmic fire\, and inspired interplay\, delivering a thrilling evening of Brazilian-influenced jazz.
