Terry Waldo on the Upper Terrace at Bryant Park

A five, six, seven, eight…come on down and swing along to the best ragtime, stride, and jazz the Big Apple has to offer. With special performances on select Thursdays and sprinkled spontaneously throughout the season.

Terry Waldo is considered one of America’s premier performers and presenters of Ragtime and Early Jazz. Known for his virtuoso ragtime and stride piano playing, charming vocals, and disarming wit, he is the protégé‚ of the legendary Eubie Blake, who called Waldo “an extension of my own musical self.” Waldo has played countless New York jazz clubs, including the legendary Cookery, Hanratty’s and Michaels’s Pub where he produced and starred in nine critically acclaimed musical revues. He has appeared in concerts worldwide, including the Grand Parade du Jazz in Venice, George Wein’s JVC Jazz Festival at Carnegie Hall and Jazz At Lincoln Center. He recently appeared with the New York Pops at Carnegie Hall where he performed the world premiere of “The Eubie Blake Concerto.”
