Larry Vuckovich was Vince Guaraldi's only
student and played in Vince's two-piano quintet, Powder Keg. This tribute showcases an authentic musical portrait of
the Bay Area native and internationally acclaimed pianist.. Larry will premier
Vince's original composition – a beautiful previously unrecorded jazz waltz and
perform Vince's famous duets with Bola Sete. The program will include Vince
Guaraldi's favorite musical format: his repertoire of swinging jazz,
Latin/Brazilian, as well as some of his pop hits including "Cast Your Fate
To The Wind", "Charlie Brown Christmas Tune", and a selection
from "Peanuts", which are all swinging jazz pieces..
The stellar cast of musicians includes guitarist Josh Workman, who
captures the excitement of Vince’s collaborations with Brazilian guitarist Bola
Sete; bassist Seward McCain, who worked in Vince’s combos, including the
two-piano quintet, Powder Keg, with Larry as second pianist; five-time
Grammy-nominated Latin percussionist John Santos; and first-call drummer on both
coasts, Akira Tana.
Cost: $35
