Jason Moran: Ellington in Focus (solo piano)

Jason Moran: Ellington in Focus (solo piano)
In-person & live streamed
MacArthur Fellow Jason Moran has taught at the New England Conservatory, held residencies at Juilliard and the Rhythmic Music Conservatory, and up until June served as Artistic Director for Jazz at the Kennedy Center.
Moran is a visionary jazz pianist, composer, and interdisciplinary artist whose work blends music with performance art, film, and visual media. Known for his adventurous spirit, he draws from a wide spectrum of influences including Thelonious Monk, hip hop, stride piano, classical, and avant-garde jazz.
Opening for the Vermont Jazz Center 2025-2026 season, he will perform his solo piano project “Mount Ellington”, a tribute to Duke Ellington that reimagines the legendary composer’s work through his unique lens.
