About This Event
MoCA\CT Presents: Dee Dee Bridgewater & Bill Charlap
Jazz · Saturday, January 30, 2027 · 7:00 PM
Two living legends. One piano. One unforgettable voice.
Some pairings are simply historic. When three-time Grammy winner, Tony Award–winning Broadway star, and NEA Jazz Master Dee Dee Bridgewater sits down with Grammy-winning pianist Bill Charlap, four decades of jazz mastery distill into the most intimate format the music offers: a single voice, a single piano. In the close quarters of MoCA\CT’s galleries, you won’t merely watch their rapport — you’ll feel the telepathy between two artists who finish each other’s phrases.
Bridgewater’s fearless artistry has carried her from the Broadway stage to the world’s great concert halls and a Kennedy Center NEA Jazz Masters honor; Charlap earned his Grammy for The Silver Lining, his radiant album of Jerome Kern songs with Tony Bennett, and is revered as one of the most lyrical interpreters of the American Songbook alive. Together they tour behind Elemental — their first duo album and a 2026 Grammy nominee for Best Jazz Vocal Album — reimagining standards with the playful, soul-deep conversation that comes only from total command of the tradition. An evening of pure craft, stripped to its essentials.
THE VIP EXPERIENCE
Arrive at 6:00 PM for an exclusive pre-concert reception in Gallery A — a private hour among the contemporary art with complimentary wine, craft cocktails, and a selection of artisanal hors d’oeuvres. Then settle in for the performance at your own reserved, lamplit bistro table. Wine, food, and the best seats in the house — the concert at its most luxurious.
