George Maurer Group Annual Holiday Show

This merry band of “genre-bending eclectics” (Jazz 88) has been entertaining sold-out houses at the Dakota since 2000. The George Maurer Group takes the stage by storm with their irreverent style and sly musical humor. Here, they will bring you an evening filled with witty stage banter, clever musicianship, and surprising twists on holiday classics. For example, think Thelonious Monk meets “Sleigh Ride,” the Beatles’ “Drive My Sleigh,” Herbie Hancock’s “Driftin’” a la “Santa Claus is Coming to Town” and more!
George Maurer’s artistic career is an exciting and unpredictable journey. He’s always on the fast track as he performs and composes music that crosses genres, disciplines and, increasingly, continents. Moreover, George’s artistic curiosity and always-expanding boundaries constantly lead him down intriguing new professional and personal paths. Thus, they all intersect in the art he is creating now. He draws together his musical knowledge with the cultural exploration and diversity of experiences that have marked his life.
George launched his career as a solo pianist, made his mark in jazz and detoured down many other avenues. He has arranged music and been in the pit for countless musicals. He’s also played with groups ranging from a Native American country band to his own jazz ensemble. Additionally, he has released more than twenty recordings on his own label. His introductions to different styles, instruments and collective histories add texture to his music while contributing to his unique voice as a musician.
George’s versatility on the piano and keyboard lands him all in all kinds of talented company. He arranges music for orchestras and mans the piano for the nationally touring Midtown Men, putting him on stage with renowned orchestras like the Boston Pops.
