Show Description:
Piano Jazz celebrates the centennial of Stephane Grappelli,
one of the jazz world's greatest violinists. Grappelli first found fame
in France with Django Reinhart's Quintette du Hot Club. He went on to
an illustrious career playing with everyone from Oscar Peterson to Paul
Simon to Yo Yo Ma. In this encore program, the always elegant and ever
witty Grappelli joins McPartland on "Pennies from Heaven" before
showing off his keyboard skills on a piano duet of "Anything Goes."
