Bill Charlap Trio

Grammy Award-winning pianist Bill Charlap has performed with many of the leading artists of our time including Phil Woods, Tony Bennett, Gerry Mulligan, Wynton Marsalis, Freddy Cole, and Houston Person. In 1997, Charlap formed his trio with bassist Peter Washington and drummer Kenny Washington, now recognized as one of the leading groups in jazz. In 2016, Tony Bennett & Bill Charlap: The Silver Lining, The Songs of Jerome Kern, was awarded a Grammy for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album. In April, the Bill Charlap Trio released Notes from New York, their debut recording for the Impulse label. Alan Morrison’s five-star review in DownBeat stated that the new recording is “a masterclass in class.”
