Wine and Cheese Hour 6:00PM

This special concert will feature renowned Jazz Pianist Rio Clemente, "The Bishop Of Jazz" and other Special Guests. A portion of the proceeds will go to benefit the Marine Corps League of NJ.

Artist Information:

Rio Clemente "The Bishop of Jazz" - Master Jazz Pianist Anyone who has listened to Rio Clemente play piano, comes away in awe. This master pianist mixes a strong classical background with rich knowledge of jazz history, then adds an amazing sense of creativity and interpretation. The result is music that is different from others, and nearly always produces a standing ovation and cries for “more.” When reviewers stumble for words to describe his work, it’s because words fail to convey the rich depth of character, nimble facility of play and ease with which his music is crafted and performed. The man brings something very special and decidedly unequaled to the piano.
