Christian Sands Quartet - Jazz Appreciation Month - Greer Cabaret - BNY Mellon Jazzlive

#jazzlivepgh

Jazz pianist Christian Sands is one of the most in-demand pianists working in jazz. For his stunning Grammy-nominated album, Be Water (2021), Sands took inspiration from water’s tranquility and power and mused on the possibilities offered by echoing its fluidity and malleability. The music of Be Water flows with the same mesmerizing tranquility and awesome power of its namesake.
