Cyrus Chestnut Trio

Time Magazine calls Cyrus Chestnut “the best jazz pianist of his generation.” An acclaimed trio leader, accompanist and big band veteran, Cyrus has also begun performing with classical groups such as the Cecilia Chorus of New York and the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra.

His robust technique and soulful style speaks to his twin influences: deep gospel roots and swinging hard bop. Cyrus’ new album Rhythm, Melody and Harmony was praised as “a remarkable recording” by The Jazz Word.
