SUMMARY:Thomas Linger Quartet at The Django (Early and Late Shows)
DESCRIPTION:Thomas Linger is a multi-award-winning pianist and composer\, widely acclaimed for his formidable technique\, emotionally resonant playing\, and inventive compositions that leave a lasting impression. Raised in the small Appalachian town of Waynesville\, North Carolina\, he discovered a passion for improvisational music early on\, captivated by its sense of freedom\, immediacy\, and personal expression. He went on to earn his degree from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro.\nSoon after\, he burst onto the national scene by winning first place in the American Jazz Pianist Competition and relocating to New York City. There\, he studied with jazz legends Barry Harris\, George Coleman\, and Fred Hersch—mentors who helped shape his voice and artistic depth. In 2023\, he was named one of five laureates in the American Piano Awards\, the most prestigious jazz piano competition of its kind\, offering a grand prize valued at over $200\,000.\nLinger is now one of the most sought-after performers\, composers\, and educators in jazz today. In addition to leading his own projects\, Thomas is a consummate soloist and an in-demand sideman. A standout early highlight in his career was being featured as a special guest at The Village Vanguard with Peter Bernstein’s band\, alongside Joe Farnsworth\, Peter Washington\, and Doug Weiss. His debut album\, ‘Out In It\,’ featuring eight original compositions and performances by Bernstein\, Farnsworth\, and Nakamura\, received critical acclaim\, reached the top of the JazzWeek charts\, and earned high praise from All About Jazz. \nThis event is recurring on the following dates:\nMon\, Mar 02 at 10:15 PM\nMon\, Mar 02 at 11:30 PM
