Ben Rosenblum Trio

After two solo piano appearances at the Cultural Center of Cape Cod, award-winning New York City jazz pianist Ben Rosenblum will bring his trio to the Cultural Center for the first time, celebrating the release of his second trio album, River City. This afternoon will feature Rosenblum's regular touring trio, with rising stars Marty Jaffe on bass and Ben Zweig on drums. Rosenblum has been called “mature beyond his years,” (Sea of Tranquility), an “impressive talent” (All About Jazz) who “caresses [the music] with the reverence it merits” (Downbeat Magazine). Since the release of his debut trio album, Instead (4 stars, Downbeat), Rosenblum has toured with his trio throughout the United States, including extensive tours of the Northeast, Midwest, South and West Coast, and internationally in Canada and Japan. He was a featured soloist at Carnegie Hall's Stern-Perelman Auditorium with Maestro Reona Ito's New York Harmonic Band, and he has appeared at numerous prestigious venues throughout the world, including at the Appel Room at Lincoln Center, Kuumbwa Jazz Center, Ravinia, the Library of Congress and Himawari-No-Sato Concert Hall in Yokohama. The most recent album, River City, has been described as “richly romantic” and “well-realized” by JAZZIZ Magazine, which featured the title track as part of their Fall 2018 sampler CD.
