Experience an intimate afternoon with acclaimed jazz pianist
Benny Green in a special solo performance that offers a deeply personal
listening experience. Green is celebrated for his straight‑ahead style,
swinging joy, lyrical finesse, and luminous melodic clarity.
His distinctive sound was forged in the 1980s through
formative work with three jazz giants—vocalist Betty Carter, drummer Art
Blakey, and bassist Ray Brown. During this pivotal era, Green toured
extensively with Carter, appeared on her Grammy Award–winning recordings, and
recorded multiple albums with Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers, further solidifying
his authoritative swing and harmonic depth. He later became a key member of the
Ray Brown Trio, his longest and most influential sideman role.
As a bandleader, Green has recorded extensively for Blue
Note, Telarc, and Sunnyside, earning the admiration of Oscar Peterson, who
named him his protégé and collaborated with him on Oscar and Benny. After
more than three decades leading his own trio, Green’s solo work feels
especially unguarded and expressive, revealing the full depth and individuality
of his voice at the piano. This performance offers an up-close encounter with
one of the great voices of modern jazz piano.
