Bio / Background
Recorded live before a studio audience at the Center for Education at Wolf Trap, this CD captures the essence of pianist, vocalist, musicologist, and humorist John Eaton’s many concert/lectures on the American Popular Song. Join John and legendary bass-man, Jay Leonhart, in a radio-style journey through the music of Richard Rodgers. Sit back, listen, learn, and laugh as John and Jay explore the world of Richard Rodgers–One Man and His Lyricists.
Unquestionably the Washington area’s most popular jazz pianist, as well as an expert raconteur and American music aficionado, John Eaton’s engaging humor and scholarly insight have earned him a fiercely loyal following in the metropolitan area. For his third and final series at The Barns at Wolf Trap this season, Eaton joins bassist Tommy Cecil for a session featuring movie classics including “The More I See You,” “42nd Street,” “It Could Happen to You,” and “Swinging On a Star.
