The Tony Miceli Quartet
Philadelphia has a long history as an influential jazz hub in the U.S. It's produced many of the world's best known jazz musicians in a tradition that continues to this day. Billie Holiday, Jimmy Heath, Stan Getz, McCoy Tyner, Jimmy Smith, Charles Earland, Shirley Scott & Christian McBride are a few of those jazz giants.
On SUNDAY, OCTOBER 5th, our series' second fall program honors that tradition with an ALL-PHILLY show. A quartet with some of today's best known Philly jazz artists is featured. Led by renowned vibes player TONY MICELI, it includes guitarist/pianist ELIJAH COLE, bassist MADISON RAST & drummer DAN MONAGHAN.
Vibes master Miceli learned several instruments while growing up in New Jersey. However, during his college years at Philly's University of the Arts, his attraction to the vibes grew & his dedication to it became permanent. Calling Philly home since 1982's graduation, Miceli's since become a highly important & prolific voice in jazz circles on the vibraphone.
As a performer, he's worked with Peter Bernstein, Dave Liebman, Joe Magnarelli, Larry McKenna, Steve Slagle & Dave Stryker, among others. While continuing to work at jazz clubs, he's also performed at important jazz festivals in Canada, Germany, South Korea & Peru. His resume also contains recorded work as a leader & sideman & teaching credits at Philly's University of the Arts & Temple University & at Southern Mississippi University.
Our Jazz & Blues Showcase has performed live jazz in a variety of venues in the South Jersey area. We've loved discovering interesting venues for these amazing ensembles!
Join us Sunday, October 5th at 3pm at Cunningham Piano at their Cherry Hill Showroom! What better place than this iconic piano company for the Tony Miceli Quartet!
