Richard Goode will perform a special prelude recital on April 13, just before the rest of the festival gets under way, with works by Bach, Beethoven, Chopin, and Debussy. On May 8, Audra will perform a vocal recital, backed by a jazz trio, interpreting songs from an ecclectic range of songwriters from Randy Newman to Rodgers & Hammerstein and the Gershwins. Brad and his trio—bassist Larry Grenadier and drummer Jorge Rossy—will perform two sets on May 2 as part of the Festival's Jazz Club series.
