The most influential jazz pianist of the past three decades, Mehldau has earned a spot in the jazz piano firmament next to Keith Jarrett, Chick Corea and Fred Hersch as a supremely expressive improviser who turns performances into emotionally wrought journeys. The 2020 GRAMMY-winner returns for this intimate solo performance, his first on the Miner stage since his March 2017 solo recital devoted to the music of J.S. Bach -- a diverse and breathtaking program that ranged through The Well-Tempered Clavier (including "Prelude and Fugue in C-sharp Major" and "Fugue in G Minor") while also encompassing Bach-ian arrangements of songs by the Beatles, Neil Young, and Pete Townshend.
