Prelude to the 2026 Uptown Arts Stroll! Join us for a great evening of music! 

7:00pm – The Nat King Cole Generation Hope Ensemble challenges young performers to find their own voice within the classic sounds of jazz and swing. By blending rigorous musical training with a focus on social impact, we empower our musicians to see their instruments as tools for community connection. We bridge the gap between tradition and the modern stage, turning classic inspiration into contemporary innovation.

7:30pm – Pianist Emmet Cohen is one of the leading voices of his generation, known for his joyful swing, expressive lyricism, and deep connection to the jazz tradition. A multifaceted artist and bandleader, he has performed with legends including Ron Carter, Benny Golson, Jimmy Cobb, and Christian McBride, and is the creator of the internationally acclaimed Live From Emmet’s Place livestream series.

Joining Cohen are bassist Joey Ranieri and drummer Joe Farnsworth, one of the most respected rhythm sections in jazz today.

Special guest vocalist Georgia Heers, an internationally recognized rising star, brings her luminous voice and heartfelt interpretations of the Great American Songbook.

Together, they deliver an evening of vibrant swing and timeless jazz storytelling.

This program is made possible with funding from the West Harlem Development Corporation.
