Konrad Paszkudzki Presents “The Great American Songbook”
Jazz pianist Konrad Paszkudzki has been wowing audiences since the age of 14. Beginning his music career in his native Australia, Konrad earned his master’s degree from the University of Miami. Since then, he has toured with jazz trumpeter James Morrison; played with jazz orchestras in Los Angeles; led the house trio at the coveted New York venue, 54 Below; formed the Konrad Paszkudzki Trio; and joined the John Pizzarelli Quartet. He is Artistic Director of Jazz at the Ballroom, a nonprofit organization committed “to keeping the American Songbook swinging [and] classic jazz thriving.” The concert in Mayesville will consist of classics from such 20th-century jazz and show tune greats as George Gershwin, Irving Berlin, Cole Porter, Lerner & Loewe, Rodgers & Hart, and Jerome Kern.
