Composers Concordance brings together three bands, each with distinctive voices and vibes, for an evening of high velocity music, as well as great food and drink at NYC's legendary venue, Birdland.

The show begins with pianist Michael Wolff, who’s worked with everyone from Cannonball Adderly and Wayne Shorter to Frank Sinatra and served as Band Leader for the Arsenio Hall Show. He'll lead his trio with Ben Allison on bass andVictor Jones on drums.

Bassist Dan Cooper, whose compositions have been described as "full of instrumental virtuosity and the sly humor" (Fanfare), shares the stage with flutistKaoru Watanabe, pianist Alon Nechushtan, and drummer Max Maples.
