John Pizzarelli has cultivated a winning career by singing classic standards and late-night ballads, and by playing sublime and inventive guitar. Using greats like Nat “King” Cole and Frank Sinatra as touchstones, Pizzarelli is among the prime revivalists of the great American songbook, bringing to his work the cool jazz flavor of his brilliant guitar playing. In this very special performance, not only will you hear John’s unsurpassable quartet, but family patriarch Bucky Pizzarelli joins with the ensemble as well to render his own exquisite solos.
Pizzarelli and his quartet tour throughout the United States, Europe and Japan, performing classic pop, jazz and swing standards. With his five Telarc releases, John Pizzarelli sets the standard for stylish modern jazz.
