Pizzarelli (pictured) will be highlighting music from his latest recording For Centennial Reasons: 100 Year Salute to Nat King Cole, which was released in February of this year.
As the name suggests, the album features music associated with the late pianist and composer who has been a major influence on Pizzarelli's style, and is his third recording paying tribute to Cole, following 1994's Dear Mr. Cole and 1999's P.S. Mr. Cole.
A frequent visitor to St. Louis who has become a local favorite over the years, Pizzarelli was here most recently this past May, teaming up with singer Catherine Russell for a week of shows at Jazz St. Louis that featured the music of Billie Holiday and Frank Sinatra.
