The Big Three: Johnson, Waller, Smith

The versatile pianist Aaron Diehl, equally at home on stage at the Village Vanguard and as concerto soloist with the Los Angeles Philharmonic, straddles the worlds of classical and jazz. At Lyrica, he performs a recital in the tradition of stride-piano greats like Fats Waller, James P. Johnson, and Willie “The Lion” Smith.
