| On May 14th and 15th at 7:30 and 9:30 pm at The Allen Room in Lincoln Center in New York City, will be heard one of the most heartfelt voices in contemporary jazz, Kurt Elling, performing together with the great French master of jazz accordion Richard Galliano. Kurt and Richard will sing and play internationally famous ballads of love and loss in their original tongues and a language of love in a journey around the world. Richard Galliano is an exceptionally versatile musician, able to make his mark in all kinds of musical contexts, from solo appearances (like the Paris Concert from the Châtelet, which came out in 2009), to playing with a big band like the Brussels Jazz Orchestra, in 2008. His exceptional abilities as a soloist are now well-recognized, and he continues to explore a vast range of music, without ever losing that lyrical quality that infuses the ballads on Love Day that he recorded with Gonzalo Rubalcaba, Charlie Haden and Mino Cinelu, or the French Touch which allowed him to make the link between Billie Holiday and Edith Piaf, with the trumpeter Wynton Marsalis. Eager to pass on his wealth of experience, he is the author, together with his father Lucien, of an accordion method that won the SACEM prize for Best Pedagogical Work in 2009. |
