Using performers like Nat "King" Cole, Frank Sinatra and Joao Gilberto and the songs of composers from Richard Rodgers, George Gershwin to James Taylor, Antonio Carlos Jobim and Lennon & McCartney as touchstones, John Pizzarelli has established himself as one of the prime interpreters of the Great American Songbook and beyond, bringing to his work the cool jazz flavor of his brilliant guitar playing and singing. Dinner/Show: $75 Show only: $35.

ONTARIO: GENE DINOVI TRIO AT JAZZ BISTRO

Brooklyn-born pianist, composer and vocalist Gene DiNovi will perform in trio (Gene DiNovi - piano, Andrew Scott - guitar, Clark Johnston - bass) at THE JAZZ BISTRO(251 Victoria Street, Toronto, ONT, CA - 416-363-5299) on Thursday through Saturday, October 17th through 19th at 9:00 pm. DiNovi made his first visit to Toronto as an accompanist to Carmen McRae in 1971, and made his home here the following year. He has reached legendary status on the Canadian jazz scene over the decades since. Although DiNovi has been recording since 1945 as a sideman and/or accompanist to jazz giants including Lester Young, Benny Goodman, Artie Shaw, Charlie Parker, Ben Webster, Peggy Lee, Anita O'Day, Mel Torme, Tony Bennett, Carmen McRae, and Buddy DeFranco, he is likely best known as Lena Horne's accompanist, playing with her for seven years from 1955 to 1963 and occasionally after that. In Toronto, DiNovi has divided his still-thriving career between extended solo piano engagements at several of the city's more exclusive rooms and studio work as an arranger and composer of incidental music, jingles, and film scores. Now past his 80th birthday (2008), DiNovi is one of the few musicians of his generation who is still actively playing and releasing new albums. There is a $20 cover.
