The Anderson Brothers play Cole Porter
($25-$35 + taxes and fees | 6:30pm & 8:30pm Shows) Called “Virtuosos on clarinet and saxophone” by the New York Times, the Grammy-winning identical twins and Juilliard graduates Peter and Will Anderson travel to Tucson for their FOURTH annual performance at the Century Room! This time they will present the life and music of Cole Porter, with an entertaining narrative and live music with their quintet featuring Angelo Versace, Scott Black & Arthur Vint.
Songs will include “Night & Day,” “Begin the Beguine,” “I Get a Kick out of You,” “I’ve Got You Under My Skin,” “Just One of Those Things,” and more!
Born and raised in Washington D.C., the Anderson’s have headlined at The Blue Note, Jazz at Lincoln Center, The Kennedy Center, New Orleans Jazz Festival, Feinstein’s 54 Below, live on Garrison Keillor’s Prairie Home Companion, and can be heard on the Grammy-winning soundtrack of HBO’s Boardwalk Empire with Vince Giordano’s Nighthawks.
Vanity Fair magazine listed their debut album alongside Miles Davis in “Four New Releases to Make You Love Jazz,” and the Washington Post called their music “imaginatively unfolding in ways that consistently bring a fresh perspective to classic jazz.” Peter and Will received a 2014 Drama Desk nomination for their Off-Broadway Show, Le Jazz Hot (one of eight of their productions at 59E59 Theaters), and are 2018 Bistro Award winners.
