The Pittsburgh Jazz Orchestra Night to Remember at the Carnegie in Carnegie with Anqwenique Wingfield

The Andrew Carnegie Free Library is pulling out all the stops for its 2023 annual benefit! It will be the last benefit before the Music Hall closes for renovations in January 2024.

Pittsburgh Jazz Orchestra is comprised of the region’s finest and busiest jazz musicians. However, this fabulous 17-piece ensemble rarely performs as a full band. In terms of both PJO’s sound and size, the acoustically superb Music Hall is the rare perfect fit! Anqwenique Wingfield, one of Pittsburgh’s most versatile vocalists — equally at home interpreting jazz, opera, classical music and soul — joins PJO for the evening.

Almost as memorable as the concert, a party follows throughout the ACFL&MH’s 35,000 sq. ft historic landmark facility – in the Lincoln Gallery and the Studio. If the night is fine – and why wouldn’t it be – the party can spill out into the lovely Library Park. Tempting food and drink are part of the festivities. If you come early, join us at the Library’s circulation desk for a pre-concert glass of prosecco.

June 10 supports the Library & Music Hall’s wide range of services, programs and performances, while getting us that much closer to “Completing the Carnegie Carnegie.” We’ll be a little more dressed up than usual, but A Night to Remember also showcases the magic that can be found on a day in and day out basis.
