Elisabeth "Betty" Lahti Memorial Concert Series

Fred Moyer Jazz Trio

Frederick Moyer Performs The Great Jazz Pianists. First of three concerts held Jan. 25, Feb. 22, and March 21 at the Blake Library.

What can safely be called the only jazz group of its kind, the Fred Moyer Jazz Trio dazzles with stunning musicianship and a unique approach to jazz. Like other small jazz ensembles, the trio performs its own arrangements of standards from the great American Songbook. But what sets it apart from all others is its note-for-note transcriptions of great jazz trio performances from the past. Fred and friends painstakingly transcribe every note of favorite historic recordings and then bring the resulting scores to life, as would a chamber music ensemble playing Bach or Beethoven, infusing the music with their own vitality and interpretations. The result is a swinging celebration of the best in jazz, delighting both classical music lovers and long-time jazz enthusiasts. 

Today’s concert includes music of Dave Brubeck, Oscar Peterson, Monty Alexander, and Ahmad Jamal.

Limited seating. No tickets required.

This event is sponsored by the Friends of the Martin County Library System, Inc.
