In addition to being a renowned pianist who has earned a dozen Grammys, Dave Grusin is a premier film composer with more than 30 scores — and one Oscar — to his credit. He is best known for such films as Fabulous Baker Boys, Havana, On Golden Pond, Tootsie, Milagro Beanfield War and Heaven Can Wait. The first half of the concert features Grusin with an all-star rhythm section. For the second half, Grusin will join conductor Mitch Gickman and the Symphonic Jazz Orchestra for selections from throughout his illustrious career. The concert closes with the world premiere of “Symphonic Captain’s Journey” by Grammy Award winning guitarist and composer Lee Ritenour, a frequent performing partner of Grusin’s.
