About this event
Fred Hersch is one of the defining figures of contemporary jazz. For more than three decades, the highly decorated pianist, composer, and bandleader has shaped the international scene with his unmistakable style, artistic vision, and remarkable musical depth. With around fifty releases and 17 Grammy nominations, Hersch ranks among the most significant voices of his genre. Honors such as Doris Duke Artist (2016) and three-time “Jazz Pianist of the Year” further attest to his stature. Hersch impresses with a wide artistic range—from solo recitals and duo projects to his acclaimed trio and innovative chamber formats. As a composer, he received a Guggenheim Fellowship.
