A Spectacular Start to the 2025 Art of Jazz Series Season!
We couldn’t have asked for a better way to launch this year’s Art of Jazz Series than with the unforgettable performance by the Dena DeRose Trio. Dena’s impeccable artistry on piano and vocals, alongside the dynamic energy of Sherrie Maricle on drums and the skillful bass work of Jeff Campbell, created an afternoon filled with joy, swing, and soul. From their stunning rendition of Sunday in New York to heartfelt nods to jazz legends, the audience was captivated, culminating in a well-earned standing ovation.
