The 2026 MHJF is proud to present the Emmet Cohen Quintet!
_
In celebration of the centennial of John Coltrane and Miles Davis, pianist Emmet Cohen brings together an all-star quintet to explore the fundamental questions that shaped their artistry: Why are we here? What are we reaching for? Where does the music take us?
Joining him are four of today’s leading voices, including Tivon Pennicott (saxophone), Jeremy Pelt (trumpet), Yasushi Nakamura (bass), and Joe Farnsworth (drums).
Together, this powerhouse ensemble reimagines the spirit and sound of two of jazz’s most iconic innovators through improvisational brilliance, emotional depth, and cultural resonance.
Doors open at 6pm.
