Grammy-winning pianist Bill Charlap is one of the strongest mainstream jazz pianists on the scene and is renowned for his imaginative interpretations of the Great American Songbook. He has performed with Tony Bennett, Gerry Mulligan, Wynton Marsalis, and many more. His trio with bassist Peter Washington and drummer Kenny Washington is one of the leading mainstream piano trios; together, they’ve received three Grammy nominations.
Peter Washington is one of the most in demand and recorded bassists in modern jazz. Washington was invited by Art Blakey to join the Jazz Messengers; he has since played with Dizzy Gillespie, Clark Terry, Milt Jackson, and the Carnegie Hall Jazz Band. He has played in Charlap’s trio for 13 years.
Kenny Washington has performed or recorded with dozens of major artists, including Benny Carter, Ron Carter, Clark Terry, Milt Jackson, Dizzy Gillespie, Arturo Sandoval, and Benny Goodman. He has performed with Charlap’s trio for 13 years.
