Don't miss this special performance on Sunday, March 15 at 3:00PM! Fresh off recent performances at Carnegie Hall and The Kennedy Center, woodwind virtuosos and identical twins Peter and Will Anderson present a carefully selected program of classic American melodies. The Andersons live and breathe the music of the 1930s and ‘40s – reviving tunes of the past with an energy and authenticity seldom heard today.
Their program of music from the golden age includes such vintage gems as "Rhapsody in Blue," hard-hitting swing classic “Sing, Sing, Sing,” and Broadway classic "My Favorite Things." The Andersons are passionate about the great music from a century ago, including classics from Cole Porter, Irving Berlin, and George Gershwin. Graduates of the Juilliard School, Anderson's have recently performed on Garrison Keillor's Prairie Home Companion and on HBO's Boardwalk Empire soundtrack.
More About The Anderson Brothers
“Virtuosos on clarinet and saxophone.” (New York Times) Peter and Will Anderson present the life and music of George Gershwin, with an entertaining narrative, film presentation, and live trio performance. One of the most striking geniuses of modern music, George Gershwin composed for Tin Pan Alley, Broadway, film, radio, and symphony orchestras, combining the sounds of jazz and European classical music. Selections will include "Rhapsody in Blue," "I Got Rhythm," "It Ain’t Necessarily So," "Summertime," "They Can’t Take That Away From Me," "Embraceable You," and "S’Wonderful."
Identical twins and Juilliard graduates Peter & Will Anderson are one of the most extraordinary musical acts today performing captivating, classic jazz. Born and raised in Washington D.C., the Anderson's have headlined at The Blue Note, Jazz at Lincoln Center, The Kennedy Center, New Orleans Jazz Festival, Feinstein’s 54 Below, live on Garrison Keillor’s Prairie Home Companion, and can be heard on the Grammy-winning soundtrack of HBO’s Boardwalk Empire with Vince Giordano’s Nighthawks. Vanity Fair magazine listed their debut album alongside Miles Davis in “Four New Releases to Make You Love Jazz,” and the Washington Post called their music “imaginatively unfolding in ways that consistently bring a fresh perspective to classic jazz.” Peter and Will received a 2014 Drama Desk nomination for their Off-Broadway Show, Le Jazz Hot (one of eight sold-out productions at Manhattan's 59E590).
