Event Notes
Pianist Rossano Sportiello returns to the Summer Jazz Room, this time with a longtime collaborator, tenor saxophonist Harry Allen. Sportiello’s deft and swinging playing follows in the line of virtuoso masters of the instrument. He plays locally and tours extensively in Europe, and has produced numerous recordings. Harry Allen’s playing has been described by critics as “mind blowing” and “both modern and in the grand tradition.” He has wide experience performing worldwide and has released over thirty recordings in his name. This concert promises to be a swinging event where sparks will fly!
