Jazz in NYC: Emmet Cohen Trio at Dizzy’s Club Coca Cola in Sept, 2019
Pianist Emmet Cohen, a rising star on the fast-paced jazz music scene, and his trio perform at Dizzy’s Club Coca Cola on September 15, 2019
Fun, vibrancy, and grace are signature features of Emmet Cohen‘s playing. Supported by his trio, which includes bassist Russell Hall and drummer Kyle Poole, the musicians bring back the sparkle and zest of jazzy days of the past.
Committed to the preservation of the treasured American musical tradition, Cohen is leading the project of transferring the artistic knowledge and history from the generation of established jazz titans like the bassist Ron Carter and the drummer Tootie Heath to the younger audience. Recording and producing sessions with legendary musicians make up his professional undertaking the “Masters Legacy Series.” He serves as both producer and pianist for each album in the series.
Winner of the 2019 American Pianists Association’s Grand Prize, 2019 Cole Porter Fellowship and recording residency with Mack Avenue Records, Cohen joins a prominent lineup of past awardees such as Sullivan Fortner, Aaron Parks, Dan Tepfer, and Aaron Diehl.
The excitement, warmth, and utmost elegance of playing the well-recognized staples of jazz repertoire make performances by Emmet Cohen Trio a must-see for every music lover. That was very clear in July of this year when Emmet Cohen Trio performed with Veronica Swift at Birdland to a sold-out house. Keeping in mind the popularity of the venerable Dizzy’s Club Coca Cola, consider reserving ahead as space is limited.
