Summer Jazz Series continues with pianist Jeremy Kahn

The Monday Night Summer Jazz Series continues with a solo concert by Jeremy Kahn at 7 p.m. Monday, Aug. 31, at the Oak Park Arms, 408 S. Oak Park Ave.

Kahn will present an evening of jazz standards and Great American Song Book selections.

Born near Chicago, Kahn earned a bachelor’s degree in Music from Boston’s New England Conservatory. He lived in New York City for 12 years, and now he and his family live in Oak Park. He’s played with Dizzy Gillespie, Max Roach, Joni Mitchell, Phil Woods, Charlie Haden, Aretha Franklin, Barbara Cook and Alvin and the Chipmunks.

“Although I am mainly a jazz pianist, having played in jazz-type venues around the world,” Kahn said. “I also play on recordings that motivate you to consume your favorite products, and I also play in pit orchestras for some of your favorite theatrical extravaganzas.”

The Oak Park Arms is a rental retirement community which provides independent and assisted living apartments and a full schedule of activities and services. Furnished apartments are also available for a short-term stay – a weekend, a week, a month or longer.
