Taos Jazz Bebop Society presents
Fred Hersch Trio
WED, April 8, 7:30 PM
A select member of jazz’s piano pantheon, Fred Hersch is a creative force who has shaped the music’s course for more than three decades. Improviser, composer, educator, bandleader, collaborator and recording artist, he’s a 17-time Grammy Award nominee who continues to earn jazz’s most prestigious awards, including being named Jazz Pianist of the Year three times by the Jazz Journalists Association (2011, 2016, 2018), Doris Duke Artist (2016), and the Jazz Magazine (France) International Artist of the Year (2021). Proclaimed “a living legend” by The New Yorker, Hersch has long defined jazz’s creative edge in a wide variety of settings. The Fred Hersch Trio, voted the #1 Jazz Group in the 2019 DownBeat Critics Poll, has appeared at major jazz festivals throughout Europe and the US and has regularly headlined at the legendary Village Vanguard. Hersch’s latest trio album, The Surrounding Green, was released in 2025 to deeply appreciative critical acclaim.
“Soaked in jazz tradition, but equally driven to pursue his own distinctive vision, Hersch possesses one of the most divine keyboard techniques of anyone currently working.”
–Michael Toland, The Big Takeover.
“No one quite gets to the heart of the matter like Fred Hersch. He deploys just the right combination of sensitivity, intelligence and emotion to absorb the listener in a private sensation that would under other circumstances never get expressed. Hersch gets it just right. He touches that keyboard and whoosh…you are there.”
–Chris Pearson, The Times (Five stars).
Joining Fred Hersch onstage are John Hébert on bass and Jonathan Blake on drums.
Presented in collaboration with Taos Pride.
