In a career spanning five decades, pianist Monty Alexander has built a reputation exploring and bridging the worlds of American jazz, popular song and the music of his native Jamaica, finding in each a sincere spirit of musical expression. Alexander's abundant artistic talents will be on display at Hennepin Theatre Trust's State Theatre when the world-class musician performs a rare, intimate concert with the audience seated on stage near the piano. He will play as part of a trio with Herlin Riley on drums and Hassan Shakur on bass.
This unique event will not only offer an up-close perspective of jazz great Alexander at the keyboard in a trio, but also includes a pre-show, on-stage, cash bar cocktail hour from 7–8 p.m. with the concert scheduled from 8–10 p.m. A post-show reception with the artists will follow. $50 tickets include premium seating and a complimentary Monty Alexander CD.
