Jazz at Lincoln Center: Dizzy's Club
Joey Alexander Trio

Joey Alexander is 13 years old!

Below is a video of the September Jazz Concert we saw one week ago.  Tonight will be in a much smaller, intimate, club atmosphere.

Joey Alexander at Rose Hall...

"With pianist Joey Alexander, bassist Larry Grenadier (9/30 and 10/1) and Dan Chmielinski (10/2), and drummer Ulysses Owens, Jr.

After jaw-dropping performances at Jazz at Lincoln Center’s 2014 Gala, Dizzy’s Club Coca-Cola, historic festivals around the world, and a feature spotlight on 60 Minutes, 13-year-old piano prodigy Joey Alexander returns to overwhelming demand. Tonight’s performance is an album release party for Alexander’s sophomore album on Motema Records, Countdown. This new record is the highly anticipated follow-up to 2015’s My Favorite Things, which received two Grammy nominations, making Joey the youngest Grammy Award nominee in jazz history. Alexander’s youth makes his technical ability and emotional and improvisational maturity almost startling, but this level of performance would earn the gig at any age. Joining Alexander are bassists Larry Grenadier (9/30 and 10/1) and Dan Chmielinski (10/2), plus multi-Grammy Award-winning drummer Ulysses Owens, Jr. pianist Joey Alexander, bassist Larry Grenadier (9/30 and 10/1) and Dan Chmielinski (10/2), and drummer Ulysses Owens, Jr.

Dizzy's Club is next to the Appel Theater and Rose Theater in Jazz at Lincoln Center in the Time Warner Complex.  It is set up as a night club with jazz.  The food is really good!  The view overlooks Columbus Circle, 59th Street, Central Park, and many of New York's skyscrapers.
