Fred Moyer, pianist, performs classical pieces for first half of the concert. Fred is joined by Lowell Ringel on bass and Bob Savine on drums for the second half to perform famous jazz trios.
The classical repertoire points out the links between classical music and jazz. Most of the great classical composers were great improvisors, and many compositions started life as improvisations. Theme and variations, a common form in classical music is the model for most jazz. Many of the harmonies that we associate with jazz were first invented by classical composers. Finally, some "classical" works such as Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue straddle both worlds.
