Featuring
BRIAN FITZGERALD TRIO
Led by guitarist Brian Fitzgerald, the Brian Fitzgerald Trio is an engaging, multi-layered musical convergence that features Fitzgerald on 7- string guitar, Mike Anderson on bass and Dr. Renata Bratt on cello. Spontaneous and creative, thoughtful and sophisticated, the trio covers everything from hard swinging traditional jazz to reimagined classics and updated pop tunes. The result is an improvisational sound with a modern vibe, in the best traditions of jazz.
