Step into the captivating world of pianist, Marc Copland, a living legend whose artistry embodies a profound depth, inventive spirit, and unparalleled musicality. Critics and enthusiasts alike have hailed him as one of the greatest jazz pianist of our time, whose influence has helped shape the music, and the younger musicians who play it, for decades.

His sound is like no other pianist, cutting-edge with harmonies and atmospheres, but simultaneously clear clear, swinging, and beautiful to listen to. Certainly, John Abercrombie and Gary Peacock thought so; for over 30 years, they played in his bands and he in theirs.

Joining him on this evening our Montreal musicians, Adrian Vedady, Louis-Vincent Hamel and Christine Jensen. Not to be missed.
