Having concentrated on the music of Paul McCartney, Johnny Mercer, and Frank Sinatra over the last two years, Pizzarelli has returned to the bossa nova of Jobim with his 2017 release Sinatra & Jobim @ 50. With co- vocalist Daniel Jobim, grandson of the legendary Brazilian composer, the two explore songs Sinatra and Jobim recorded, as well as add new songs flavoured with the spirit of the classic Francis Albert Sinatra and Antonio Carlos Jobim album. Pizzarelli has toured North America, South America, Asia, and Europe, performing shows centered on Frank Sinatra’s centennial, the songs of Johnny Mercer, and a McCartney program, in which his quartet is joined by strings and a horn section. He also tours on a double bill with pianist Ramsey Lewis. While plenty of jazz greats influenced his work, Nat King Cole has been Pizzarelli’s hero and foundation over the last 25 years.

  • John Pizzarelli Article
    I’m Hip -- Please Don’t Tell My Father John Pizzarelli Quartet-- September 7th at The Whitefish Performing Arts Center September 8th at Bigfork Center for the Performing Arts. John Pizzarelli is a great storyteller, and that’s a tremendous asset for an entertainer. But he’s also a terrific jazz guitarist fond of playful and frisky musical conversations as well. Add to that, he sings, respectfully interpreting the Great American Songbook with easygoing crooning and occasional wisecracking humor. John Pizzarelli is the son of journeyman swing guitarist Bucky Pizzarelli. He still occasioinally performs with his famous father Bucky, who is now late into his 80’s. John’s first release was entitled, I’m Hip -- Please Don’t Tell My Father (1983). John Pizzarelli has recorded over twenty albums since 1990, and he’s appeared on more than forty albums of other recording artists including Sir Paul McCartney, James Taylor and Rosemary Clooney. The John Pizzarelli Trio opened several dates on Frank Sinatra’s 1993 tour, and he was part of the legendary vocalist’s 80th birthday celebration at Carnegie Hall. John’s a lucky guy because work and play for him are pretty much the same thing. He likes to describe his sound as updated old-school. He’s quite the showman who has appeared on “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno,” “The Late Show with David Letterman,” “Live With Regis & Kelly,” and the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. “madly creative” -- Los Angeles Times “the genial genius of the guitar” -- The Toronto Star. “a rare entertainer of the old school.” -- Seattle Times Pizzarelli received the 2009 Ella Fitzgerald Award from the Montreal International Jazz Festival, joining a select group of past winners including Aretha Franklin, Tony Bennett, Harry Connick, Jr.

Mai 2018, 22.05 – 24.00 SRF 2 Kultur Dass Frank Sinatra (1915-1998) und sein Einfluss auf den Jazzgesang kaum überschätzt werden können, ist mittlerweile anerkannt. Seine Wirkung auf Komponisten und Texter ist allerdings kaum geringer. Viele Songschreiber hatten explizit seine Stimme im Kopf beim Komponieren und wenn Sinatra einen Song tatsächlich aufnahm, war das gleichsam der Ritterschlag für das Werk und seinen Meister.
