What defines the jazz sound in the concert hall? Gershwin & All that Jazz explores this question through non-stop music in this next Music Unwound performance. Maestro Carl St.Clair will let the music do all the talking in three short sets — with music by Leonard Bernstein, Duke Ellington, and featuring George Gershwin’s Concerto in F with pianist Alain Lefevre.

Don't miss the "Jazz Unwound" Lounge during the show's two intermissions and the Late Nite Lounge after the show, featuring the Sellers Jazz Quartet.

Concert Preview Talk at 7PM.
