Stephen Hudson, Jazz Piano

The Greater Princeton Steinway Society presents Steve Hudson, a pianist and composer whose style embraces the history of jazz, blues, folk, and modern classical music, all with a free-spirited love of improvisation. His latest release, “Galactic Diamonds,” features Hudsonʼs genre-bending compositions for violin, cello, piano, and drums. Other recent albums include, ʻMary Joyce Project - Nothing to Loseʼ and ʻBaritone Monkʼ with the Claire Daly Quartet. He tours the US, Canada, and Europe with the Steve Hudson Chamber Ensemble, the Claire Daly Quartet, the Outer Bridge Ensemble, and a variety of other groups. Lucid Culture calls Hudsonʼs music “so disarmingly fun, itʼs impossible to resist... a good natured mix of third stream jazz with a catchy, quirky pop edge.”

Admission: $18/$10
