Event
Danilo Perez at the Bellevue Jazz Festival
The extraordinary Panamanian pianist and composer Danilo Perez is among the most influential and dynamic musicians of our time. In just over a decade, his distinctive blend of Pan-American jazz has attracted critical acclaim and loyal audiences. Danilo's abundant talents and joyous enthusiasm make his concerts both memorable and inspiring. Whether leading his own ensembles or touring with renowned jazz masters, Danilo is making a decidedly fresh imprint on contemporary music, guided, as always, by his love for jazz.
He has led his own groups since the early 90s, and as bandleader has earned three GRAMMY nominations for his ebullient and innovative recordings. In 2002, he received a nomination from the Jazz Journalists Association for Pianist of the Year.
Danilo was the first Latin member of Wynton Marsalis band, and the first jazz musician to perform with the Panamanian Symphony Orchestra. His last four CDs accumulated numerous awards and Top Ten citations, firmly establishing Danilos leadership role in a new generation of jazz artists.
Danilo Perez will perform Saturday afternoon in the Theatre at Meydenbauer Center.
