If you’ve seen Jeff Hamilton in the last few years, you have probably found yourself digging the pianist, Tamir Hendelman. Tamir has been on that piano bench since 2000. Tonight Tamir returns to WJMAC, fresh from the Monterrey Jazz Festival, heading up his own trio with Alex Frank on bass and Dean Koba on drums.

A pianist who is known for playing that is “sensitive, introspective and captivating” (LA Jazz Scene), Tamir is often compared with the great Oscar Peterson, but you will find he deserves plenty of accolades in his own right.

Lineup:
Tamir Hendelman – Piano
Alex Frank – Bass
Dean Koba – Drums

Admission is at the door only: $20 General, $16 CENTER Early Members, $10 WJMAC members, $5 WJMAC students
