Description

Join us every Thursday evening for a festive night of live music, drink specials, and easy-going REVELRY.

Italian pianist Francesco Turrisi blends elements of jazz, early, and world music, touching on themes of improvisation and musical migration routes. Embracing classical and baroque styles, this “musical alchemist” (The Irish Times) seamlessly blends genres to create ancient melodies and rhythms through a contemporary jazz prism.

Turrisi will be joined for select songs by Rhiannon Giddens (vocals).

Francesco Turrisi has collaborated with a wide range of artists in jazz, world and early music such as Bobby McFerrin, Dave Liebman, Gianluigi Trovesi, Nils Landgren, Wolfgang Muthspiel, Barry Guy, Gabriele Mirabassi, Savina Yannatou, Maria Pia de Vito, Theodosii Spassov, Gavin Bryars, Bang on a Can, Misia, The King’s Singers, Veronique Gens, Philippe Jaroussky, Pepe el Habichuela, Lucilla Galeazzi, and Bijan Chemirani.

This performance appears as part of the Rhiannon Giddens Residency.
