FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

ACCLAIMED JAZZ PIANIST
BRADLEY SOWASH TO PERFORM AT MCCC

MONROE, Mich. – Acclaimed jazz pianist, composer and educator Bradley Sowash will perform at Monroe County Community College on Saturday, September 29.

The concert will take place at 7:30 p.m. in the La-Z-Boy Center, Meyer Theater, which is located on MCCC’s Main Campus at 1555 S. Raisinville Rd.

Sowash has been categorized as contemporary jazz with classical stylings – roaming somewhere between Ellington’s playfulness and Beethoven’s romanticism.  His emotional expression and formidable technique have prompted favorable reviews in national publications, such as The Village Voice and Billboard.  Among Sowash’s broadcast credits are national radio airplay on NPR’s “Morning Edition” and regular guest appearances on the PBS series, The Piano Guy, since its inception.

Reserved seating tickets for the show are $15.
