The legendary Roy Haynes has been a dominant force on the jazz scene for seven decades, playing with everyone—Bird, Diz, Monk, Trane… After appearing in 2010 with Chick Corea’s quartet, this veritable rhythmic volcano returns to Caramoor with his Fountain of Youth Band. The evening opens with three-time Grammy® award winner Dee Dee Bridgewater demonstrating why she continues to be one of the great jazz singers of our time. Recognized the world over as a master, Kenny Barron shares a solo set of his consummate and lyrical pianism. The young Gretchen Parlato demonstrates why she is one of the hottest voices on the jazz scene these days. Hard Bop icons Billy Harper and the Cookers open the day by taking us back to the hard-driving jazz of the mid-1960s.

Great Performances will have a limited BBQ menu in addition to their sandwiches, salads and snacks available at the concession stands.
