New York City-based guitarist Pete Smith returns to the Longfellow House with his trio for a free concert presenting the original music of the great jazz pianists. From Ellington to Evans, Chick to Cedar, Strayhorn to Hancock, the trio will explore the compositions that shaped and elevated the music to newer and higher heights. Double bassist Gregory Ryan and drummer Austin McMahon will be joining for this beautiful afternoon of music under the trees on the House lawn.
