One of the Jazzschool’s award-winning Advance High School Workshop ensembles plays a special offsite concert at the beloved jazz club Mr. Tipples Recording Studio in San Francisco to mark the end of the school year, when several members of the group graduate and leave for college. The student musicians play first at 7pm, and the second set at 8:45pm features a quartet led by their instructor, contemporary jazz pianist, composer and longtime Jazzschool faculty member Peter Horvath. Tickets are available via the Mr. Tipples website.

Peter Horvath has been perfecting his craft since the age of six when he began taking classical piano lessons. Born in Budapest, Hungary, he attended the Bela Bartok Conservatory of Music before relocating to the US in 1983 and studied at the Berklee College of Music. He has since performed, recorded and toured nationally and worldwide with a long line of world-class artist, including jazz greats Bobby Hutcherson, Joe Henderson, Richie Cole, Ernie Watts, Eddie Henderson, Charles McPherson, Benny Maupin, Lenny White, Arturo Sandoval, Randy Brecker, Marcus Miller, Bob Mintzer, Bob Sheppard, Craig Handy, Ledisi, Keith Washington, and the Oakland Symphony. Peter composed for and performed with David Garibaldi for his critically acclaimed Warner Brothers video/CD series and recorded the tracks for Aretha Franklin’s performance of the National Anthem at the 1993 World Series.
