Jazz at the Parrish
Bill O’Connell, a bandleader, pianist, arranger, music director, and accompanist for many icons of jazz and Latin music, will perform at the Parrish Art Museum in Water Mill tomorrow at 6 p.m. as part of the museum’s Jazz on the Terrace series.
Alex Henderson, writing for allmusic.com, wrote, “As a pianist he is known for a lyrical approach that owes something to Keith Jarrett, Bill Evans, and Chick Corea, as well as Herbie Hancock.” Mr. O’Connell has accompanied Sonny Rollins, Chet Baker, Mongo Santa Maria, and Gato Barbieri as well as the vocalists Jon Lucien, Astrud Gilberto, and Kenny Rankin.
Tickets are $12, free for students and members. The museum suggests that guests take lawn chairs or blankets.
