Details:
Despite his unusually late start on the piano at age eighteen, (after years of playing clarinet, sax, and flute) John Stetch’s first CD and Juno nomination came only a few years later. After being nominated for 3 more albums, he also won the Prix du Jazz at the Montreal International Jazz festival and placed 2nd in both the Theloniuos Monk International Composer''s competition and the Great American Piano Competition. Steinway artist Stetch has performed across Europe, Japan, Israel, Brazil, the Ukraine and USA, and has been steadily receiving acclaim for his virtuosic originality and inventiveness. Stetch has performed with Charlie Haden,Billy Hart,Seamus Blake,Mark Turner,Jeff Ballard,Jorge Rossi, and his sideman work includes being a decade-long member of the Rufus Reid group. Stetch''s discography includes a solo piano trilogy which garnered unanimous international praise. As a composer, Stetch has received numerous grants and commissions, and has recently been hired to compose a piece for the CBC Radio Orchestra for their farewell concert after 70 years. With the upcoming tour to celebrate his new CD, TV Trio, Stetch delves into a more recent and somewhat unexpected chapter of the Great American Songbook – TV themes of the 70’s and 80’s. Accompanied by Doug Weiss(bass) and Rodney Green(drums), the trio presents swinging and fun arrangements of such classics as Star Trek,Six Million Dollar Man,The Waltons,Love Boat,Bugs Bunny,The Price is Right,Rocky and Bullwinkle,All My Children,Dallas,and more.
