Jazz Room Series - Guitarist James Chirillo

Sunday, November 13, 2022 @ 4:00pm



Shea Center for Performing Arts
300 Pompton Rd, Wayne, NJ 07470

James Chirillo is a vastly under-recognized virtuoso of swing and bop guitar, and was a charter member of the Smithsonian Masterworks Orchestra directed by Gunther Schuller and David Baker.  He is a student of the legendary Tiny Grimes, and was a member of Benny Goodman’s last touring band, performed frequently with Bob Wilbur, Buck Clayton, Kenny Davern, Vic Damone, Marilyn Maye, and more recently with Wynton Marsalis and the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra.  He is a graduate of North Texas State University, and was a member of the Jazz Knights at West Point, one of the US Armed Forces’ premiere jazz ensembles.  He brings his swinging virtuosity to the Jazz Room stage for the first time, joined by the great swing trumpeter Jon-Erik Kelso, clarinetist Evan Christopher, trombonist Harvey Tibbs, and drummer Jerome Jennings.
