The Bill Charlap Trio is celebrated as one of the leading ensembles in jazz today. Known for their sophisticated interpretations of the American popular songbook and jazz standards, their performances are often highlighted by Charlap’s elegant and nuanced piano playing, Peter Washington’s solid and melodic bass lines, and Kenny Washington’s sensitive and swinging drumming. A notable performance aspect is their deep musical rapport and intuitive interplay, honed over decades of collaboration. Their latest recording, "And Then Again," released in 2024 on Blue Note Records, was captured live at the Village Vanguard and showcases their continued evolution with inspired renditions of classics and compositions by jazz masters like Kenny Barron. The Bill Charlap Trio has received multiple GRAMMY Award nominations for albums such as "Somewhere: The Songs of Leonard Bernstein" and "The Bill Charlap Trio: Live at the Village Vanguard." Additionally, Charlap himself won a GRAMMY in 2016 for his collaboration with Tony Bennett on "The Silver Lining: The Songs of Jerome Kern," which featured the trio.

A Night of Flamenco Music and Dance with Caminos Flamencos Featuring Master Guitarist Jason McGuire and Emmy Winning Dancer/ Choreographer Yaelisa with Special Guest Vocalists & Dancers Reyes Barrios and Stephanie Pedraza An evening of traditional flamenco with internationally recognized masters in the art of flamenco. Caminos Flamencos led by Jason and Yaelisa have produced some of the most creatively innovative productions in flamenco dance and music on the West Coast, influencing the development of flamenco across the U.S. and bringing some of Spain’s greatest artists to stages in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Orange County and throughout the Coast. Yaelisa curated the very first international flamenco festival in California, the New World Flamenco Festival, from 2001-2015 which set the stage for other festivals that followed in her footsteps. This power duo continues to delve deeply into the art as they have done for 30 years, with Jason now a masterful luthier building custom flamenco guitars, and one he will play this evening. Their time in the Bay Area was incredibly prolific, in both training and creating new artists to this genre, and in the level and depth of their many performances. They are thrilled to bring with them a San Diego-based artist, singer/dancer Reyes Barrios, originally from Sevilla, and Stephanie Pedraza, a Canadian flamenco artist travelling on the Coast. Post-performance there will be a Q&A with the artists taking questions and discuss the art and all things flamenco! Caminos Flamencos on Facebook
