My Life in Jazz from Japan, the U.S., and Now Home in Indiana

Inspired by great piano trios such as Nat “King” Cole’s, Luke Gillespie leads a new BWJO ensemble in concert of classic jazz and stories of growing up and pursuing jazz and classical piano in Japan (while also mastering ping pong) and then furthering his education and establishing his professional career at Indiana University.

Selections will include classics from the Mills Brothers, Nat "King" Cole, Gillespie’s own arrangement of "Stardust", an original composition, "DaNaBar," honoring David Baker. His Japan years will be represented by such songs as "Moving Mists.” Also included will be others he has played and/or recorded over the decades.
