Katonah, New York – The 2008 Caramoor International Music Festival, hailed by The New York Times as “… the loveliest Festival of them all,” presents a weekend of jazz on August 1, 2 and 3. The legendary pianist, Ahmad Jamal and his Trio were chosen by Jim Luce, Caramoor’s jazz producer, to open the fifteenth annual International Jazz Festival. Other highlights include performances by the Ahmad Jamal Trio, Mulgrew Miller's Wingspan, Jimmy Heath Big Band, Michel Camilo Trio, pianist Aaron Diehl, and Wynton Marslis. The Festival’s emphasis on Latin Jazz as part of Sonidos Latinos, Caramoor’s Latin-American Music Initiative, continues with a Cuban Piano Summit featuring Elio Villafranca and Chuchito Valdes. The innovative and delightfully surprising improvisations heard in the intimate Spanish Courtyard show why Caramoor is the perfect environment for summertime jazz. |
