Grammy Award-winning vocalist Kurt Elling and guitarist virtuoso Charlie Hunter join forces to perform new songs, standards from the Great American Songbook, and dynamic reinventions.
Two-time Grammy Award-winner Elling is renowned for a signature, rich sound, and an inventive and individualized body of work. With a one-of-a kind brand of contemporary beat lyricism and vocalese-writing ingenuity, the Chicago-based musician has extended the parameters of vocal jazz and enlarged its vocabulary. The New York Times called him “the standout male jazz vocalist of our time” and The Guardian (UK) pronounced him “a kind of Sinatra with superpowers.”
Hunter is a guitarist, producer, and composer celebrated for his innovative approach to the guitar. He gained widespread recognition for his unique style of playing an eight-string guitar, which he custom designed, allowing him to simultaneously play bass lines, melodies, and chords. “The Rhode Island-born guitarist has ingeniously redesigned his guitar and boasts one of the most original techniques in the instrument’s history.” (The Guardian)
After the concert, enjoy a beverage and more music at the Postlude Performance in the Leslie and Anna Dan Galleria.
