Caramoor Center for Music and the Arts presents the 2013 Jazz Festival celebrating
the 20th anniversary of the Caramoor Jazz Festival. From July 26 – 28, audiences can enjoy some of today’s
most influential artists in jazz on Caramoor’s distinguished 90-acre garden estate in Katonah, N.Y. One of the most vital jazz events in the region each summer, the annual Festival – organized by Jazz Producer Jim Luce – is renowned for its star-studded lineup of jazz greats and new forces on the scene.

The July 27 sets capture the sheer breadth of global influences on the jazz scene today. The day begins with Polish pianist and composer Adam Makowicz and his trio, performing a set rife with classical and jazz influences. Next will be the sounds of the acclaimed Charles Tolliver Big Band. Grammy nominee, pianist Vijay Iyer, blends music from his native India with jazz, classical, rock, funk, soul, hip-hop, and electronica. A high-energy celebration of world-rhythms and jazz melodies by pianist Benito Gonzalez prepares the audience for the evening’s headliner, the swingin’ Delfeayo Marsalis and the Uptown Jazz Orchestra.
