Your ticket includes dinner and a concert by the internationally acclaimed Joonas Haavisto Quartet, featuring three-time Grammy-winning album contributor Tivon Pennicott, who has performed with such distinguished artists as Stevie Wonder and Wynton Marsalis. Meet the Musicians: Led by Finnish pianist and Steinway Artist Joonas Haavisto, one of Finland’s leading jazz musicians, the quartet brings together an outstanding group of international talent. Haavisto’s trio has performed at prestigious venues and festivals, including the legendary Blue Note and Tokyo Jazz Festival. Joining him is saxophonist Tivon Pennicott, whose performances appear on three Grammy-winning albums: one with Esperanza Spalding and two with Gregory Porter. He has also performed with Jon Batiste’s band on The Late Show. The quartet’s New York-based rhythm section features bassist Joe Martin, a sought-after collaborator of Chris Potter and Kurt Rosenwinkel, and drummer Colin Stranahan, winner of the Thelonious Monk Competition, who has performed with jazz legends Herbie Hancock and Wayne Shorter.
