  Music Shed Benefit     

Norfolk Cabaret Night

Saturday, June 16, 8:00 pm

Join us for this special kick-off event of our
Music Shed restoration project.

We'll turn our favorite concert hall into an intimate setting with candle-lit tables and elegant decorations. Wine and special hors d'oeuvres will be available. Music for the evening will be provided by New York cabaret star, Grammy®-nominated recording artist John Pizzarelli and his Quartet.

Described as "Hip with a wink" by Town and Country magazine, John Pizzarelli has been hailed by the Boston Globe for "reinvigorating the Great American Songbook and re-popularizing jazz." In addition to his annual residency at the famed Café Carlyle he hosts the nationally syndicated radio show "Radio Deluxe" and has given performances around the world. For himself he says, "Nat 'King' Cole is why I do what I do. We aren't trying to copy him. His sound was singular and inspired. I've always said we're an extension, a 21st-century version of what that group was."

"John Pizzarelli is so impossibly cool, he shouldn't be legally allowed to enter Oregon." - A local Oregon paper
