John Pizzarelli Trio

World-renowned guitarist and singer John Pizzarelli has dedicated many of his albums to the great songwriters and performers who helped establish the Great American Songbook and the pop music canon. On his latest album, Stage and Screen, Pizzarelli and his remarkable trio explore the Broadway stage and the silver screen for more immortal songs from the past century.

The album’s cleverly chosen repertoire spans nearly nine decades, starting with a pair of songs from the 1925 musical No, No, Nanette (“I Want to Be Happy” and “Tea for Two”) and leading into the 21st century with “I Love Betsy” from Jason Robert Brown’s Honeymoon in Vegas. In between, there are pieces by such iconic songwriters and composers as Richard Rodgers, Lorenz Hart, Oscar Hammerstein II, Leonard Bernstein, Sammy Cahn, and Jule Styne, as well as songs immortalized in cinema favorites such as Casablanca.

Pizzarelli is joined by his trio, which features bassist Mike Karn and pianist Isaiah J. Thompson, two tremendous talents with whom Pizzarelli has discovered a scintillating chemistry.
