About this Event
Frank Vignola's jaw-dropping guitar technique explains why the New York Times deemed him one of the brightest stars of the guitar. His stunning virtuosity has made him the guitarist of choice for many of the world's top musicians, including Ringo Starr, Madonna, Donald Fagen, Wynton Marsalis, Tommy Emmanuel, Mark O Connor, the Boston Pops, the New York Pops, and guitar legend Les Paul, who named Vignola to his Five Most Admired Guitarists List for the Wall Street Journal.
Tonight Frank will be joined by Italian born jazz guitarist Pasquale Grasso, a much-celebrated young talent on the jazz scene. The winner of the inaugural Wes Montgomery International Jazz Guitar Competition, Grasso has gone on to release several highly acclaimed albums for Sony Master Works. His most recent release is 2022’s BeBop!, a tribute to bebop pioneers Dizzy Gillespie and Charlie Parker. His unique innovative style is hypnotizing to watch as his nimble fingers appear to change the 6 guitar strings into 88 piano keys. When not performing solo or with his trio, Grasso is a frequent collaborator with vocalist Samara Joy. He has also played Montreal Jazz Festival, Newport Jazz Festival, Jazz at Lincoln Center, Monterey Jazz Festival and has appeared live on NBC’s Today Show.
