Pianist Andy Kahn of Philadelphia—who performed at Orgonon’s Evenings of Music series in 2004, 2005, 2006, 2009, 2010 and 2011—returns for a solo performance to benefit The Wilhelm Reich Infant Trust.
Andy’s repertoire features tunes written by Cole Porter, Jerome Kern, George Gershwin, Harry Warren, Johnny Mercer, Richard Rodgers & Lorenz Hart and other American standard songwriters. With Be-Bop and Jazz taking their cues from their songs, Andy also plays some of his favorite jazz selections, lending his own improvisations. Offering anecdotes about the composers and pointing out special elements of songs woven into our country’s musical history, Andy lends a personal touch as he takes his audiences on a guided tour of America’s unique musical contribution to the arts, “Jazz and the Standard Song.”
