Marigny Opera House Monthly Jazz Series: Lawrence Sieberth Quartet
Kicking off the Marigny Opera House Monthly Jazz Series, celebrated New Orleans pianist/composer Lawrence Sieberth presents new work and rarely-played selections with his Quartet, including Rex Gregory, sax; Peter Harris, bass; and Doug Belote, drums.

Pianist, composer, and producer Lawrence Sieberth is at home in virtually any musical setting. While based in jazz, Lawrence's musical vision is not limited by genre barriershe prefers to integrate the many facets of music and performance into an engaging, inclusive experience. His own neo-bop improvisations and experimental inclinations combine with his classical and world music influences providing an extensive musical vocabulary for both performances and compositions for television, film, and stage.

Lawrence Sieberth's transcendent 2009 album New New Orleans finds him literally center stage, a solo piano set wherein traditional New Orleans jazz pieces get a brilliant surveying with some judicious modern overtones sprinkled throughout them. That same year saw the far side of the spectrum via Arkipelago, an album exploring the area(s) where the ethereal overlaps with the earthy, where fevered fantasy coalesces with funk, the Second Line strolls Alpha Centauri. In the most recent album 'It's Magic' in collaboration with singer Germaine Bazzle, Sieberth's exemplary skills as accompanist come to the foresongs such as "Bye Bye Blackbird" and "Sophisticated Lady" are not merely covered but made anew, the notes dangling from his fingertips as if they were dipped in honey.

His local ensembles vary from New Orleans traditional to questing improvisations, from the avant-garde to mainstream jazz and R&B. He has performed at virtually every venue in New Orleans, from small clubs to the annual New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival where he has been a regular featured artist and musical director of over 30 years. His collaborations with notable local performers include: Johhny Adams, Charles Neville, Leslie Smith, Tony Dagradi, Jeremy Davenport, John Vidacovich, Luther Kent, Leah Chase, Topsy Chapman, Herlin Riley, Brian 'Breeze' Cayolle, Victor Goines, and Jason Marsalis.

He presently performs and tours with Gerald French & the Original Tuxedo Jazzband, Germaine Bazzle, and Lena Prima (daughter of the legendary Louis Prima) with whom has just released a Christmas cd playing duo with Lena on vocals.

Some of the notable musicians he has performed with include: Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown, Joanne "BJ" Crosby (Dreamgirls & Smokey Joe's Cafe), Frank Gratowski, Hamid Drake, Eddie Harris, David Amram, Roseanna Vitro, Newport Jazz All-Stars, The Funk Brothers with Tom Scott, Badal Roy, Carlos Malta, Maria Marquez, Marl Growden, Aashish Khan, Randy Brecker, Lew Soloff, The Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra, Corpus Christi Symphony and the Baton Rouge Symphony.
