Brandon Goldberg Trio - Livestream Event at Litchfield Jazz Festival at Telefunken Soundstage

In the summer of 2006, a tiny 10-year-old Brandon Goldberg began attending Litchfield Jazz Camp. Flash forward five years, Brandon has already performed at the Newport, Litchfield, and Caramoor Jazz Festivals and renowned jazz venues like Jazz at Lincoln Center, Dizzy’s, Birdland Theatre, The Apollo, and Baltimore’s Keystone Korner. He released his second record, In Good Time, to a sold-out crowd this September 30, at Dizzy’s Club at Jazz at Lincoln Center. This album, like his debut, Lets Play!, has already received a 4-star review from DownBeat. Pretty great for any musician, never mind a 15-year-old one!...

On October 22, the Brandon Goldberg Trio will open the second season of Litchfield Jazz Presents, a live-stream series from Telefunken Soundstage. Founded last year by the Litchfield Jazz Festival in the face of a pandemic, the program has become a regular part of Litchfield’s offerings and, with enthusiastic support from fans and friends, it's free.

Brandon, who is honoring the music of Cole Porter here, will be joined by bassist Mark Lewandowski, a graduate of Juilliard’s Artist Diploma Ensemble and London’s Guildhall and drummer Jimmy Macbride. Jimmy, a Connecticut native and also a Juilliard grad, has appeared with Herbie Hancock, Terence Blanchard, and Wynton Marsalis and at the Monterey, North Sea, Newport and Litchfield Jazz Festivals. Jimmy, like Brandon, was a Litchfield Jazz Camper and started even younger: he was 9!

The concert begins at 7:30. For information and link visit www.litchfieldjazzfest.com.
