We are pleased to bring back jazz pianist Geoffrey Keezer for his third performance with the Chippewa Valley Symphony. An Eau Claire native, he's recorded and/or toured alongside contemporaries Roy Hargrove, Christian McBride and Diana Krall, in addition to working with legends like Ray Brown and Art Farmer. Time Magazine wrote "He has more than enough virtuosity and sheer musical wit and intelligence to weave all his apparently disparate strands of influence into an original and compelling whole."
