Canadian jazz pianist extraordinaire Renee Rosnes will appear with a line-up of celebrated jazz musicians to perform snapshots of classic recordings on the Blue Note label, which holds such an important place jazz history. The evening will feature a unique combination of players, including trumpet master Randy Brecker and Rosnes’s husband and acclaimed jazz pianist, Bill Charlap.

Rosnes’ participation in Jazz in July will follow a stint early in the month at Village Vanguard, which sees the pianist hold down the fort at the venerable Vanguard with a superb quartet, featuring Rich Perry on sax, Peter Washington on bass, and Lewis Nash on drums.
