Piano Legends celebrates and explores the rich legacy of iconic pianists throughout Jazz history. Spanning the evolution of jazz from Ragtime to Modern Fusion, the Charleston Jazz Orchestra will present the styles and innovations of legendary jazz pianists such as Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea, Thelonious Monk and Bill Evans, to showcase how this grandiose instrument shaped the genre’s emotional and harmonic language. Featured with your Charleston Jazz Orchestra will be four outstanding members of our jazz piano community – Gerald Gregory, Demetrius Doctor, Abdiel Iriarte and Arshak Sirunyan – to pay homage to the Piano Legends who shaped its sound.
