The heart and soul of jazz, the bass sets the beat and raises your pulse. In this must-hear concert, two of the world’s foremost bassists, take the stage for a performance like no other. Spanning genres from jazz to classical, folk, and bluegrass, this dynamic duo blends their unmatched talents in an intimate evening of musical brilliance. Philadelphia native Christian McBride, a nine-time GRAMMY-winning bassist, composer, and 2023 Downbeat Producer of the Year, has set the bar for virtuosity. Bringing his unmatched skill and passion to the stage, he joins the phenomenally gifted Edgar Meyer, hailed as the most remarkable virtuoso on his instrument by The New Yorker — whether he's playing jazz, classical or adding thrills to high-flying collaborations with such great artists as Yo-Yo Ma, Bela Fleck, Chris Thile, Zakir Hussain, and Joshua Bell among others. Expect an evening of stunning jazz standards, original compositions, and breathtaking surprises. This is a rare chance to witness these two virtuosos—friends and collaborators—perform together in an unforgettable concert.
