Vignola’s dazzling career has taken him to Carnegie Hall, the Sydney Opera House, Lincoln Center, The Blue Note, and more than 21 countries worldwide. A prolific recording artist and educator, his influence reaches across generations of musicians and fans alike. Currently, he leads the celebrated weekly “Guitar Night” residency at New York City’s Birdland Jazz Club.
