Andric Severance will play the heck out of that grand piano, and sing songs to lift your spirits, soothe your soul, warm your heart, and un-get your goat. You’ll hear some familiar jazz standards, some obscure mystical jazz songs, and of course many delightful surprises.
Caleb Bronz brings his beautiful dynamic range on the drums, and also a few tunes from the repertoire he used to play with the piano’s former owner, Charles Pratt. Art DeQuasie plays a full-sized double bass, which you don’t hear every day in the jazz world. With Andric’s expressive playing on the outstanding 7’6” Yamaha C7 grand piano, this is a first-class listening night.
