Benito Gonzalez & Ptah Williams at Chicago Jazz Piano Festival at Pianoforte Studios

About

Chicago is known around the world for its rich musical culture beyond all genres, and the Chicago Jazz Piano Summit is a great example of that. With an intimate venue and great acoustics, this festival boasts an environment that is as thrilling for any artist as it is for the listener.

Producer Jim Luce reflects that “The Great American Songbook emerged out of Broadway shows and Hollywood films to tell the story of America in the first half of the 20th Century, and remains foundational to modern American culture right through to present day."
