Peter Cincotti

Hailed as a “Boy Wonder [and] jazz wunderkind” by Vanity Fair, 20-year-old jazz sensation Peter Cincotti has taken the music world by storm. His 2003 self-titled debut album on Concord Records has been a Top 10 mainstay on the Billboard Traditional Jazz Charts. In recent months, in addition to maintaining a rigorous touring schedule and keeping up with his studies as a Columbia University undergrad, Cincotti has been in Germany filming Beyond the Sea, the highly anticipated Bobby Darrin biography, with Kevin Spacey. In January 2004, he will start work on his follow up album. He will make his American Songbook debut in Alice Tully Hall, the largest venue he has yet headlined.
