Seventeen-time Grammy nominee and acclaimed jazz pianist Fred Hersch will headline the closing night of the Denver Jazz Fest on April 12 at 7 p.m. at the Mizel Arts and Culture Center’s Elaine Wolf Theatre in Denver.
Widely revered as one of jazz’s most important voices, Hersch has been hailed as “a living legend” and is one of the most innovative pianists of his generation. His artistry is defined by lyrical intensity, rich harmonic language and profound emotional depth — qualities heard not only in his playing but also in his striking compositions. The acclaimed trio features Fred Hersch on piano, Drew Gress on bass, and Johnathan Blake on drums. The enduring strength of this trio lies in their immense common experience and the sensitivity of its members resulting in performances marked by understated elegance, clear communication and deep musical trust — a living embodiment of mastery in the art of the piano trio.
Tickets range from $39–$59.
The Mizel Arts and Culture Center is located at 350 S. Dahlia St. in Denver.
