"Music For Lovers: Special Valentine's Day Performance" 

From Manhattan's famed Birdland to the Lincoln Center and even a performance at the White House this past December, anyone who has listened to Rio Clemente play piano comes away in awe. A native of Morristown, NJ and a member of its Hall of Fame, Rio Clemente, will make a stop at the Little Theatre on Sunday, February 17th at 2 p.m. for his annual Valentine’s Day performance at Centenary Stage Company. This master pianist, also known as “The Bishop of Jazz,” mixes a strong classical background with a rich knowledge of jazz history, then adds an amazing sense of creativity and interpretation. The result is music that transcends all others, and nearly always produces a standing ovation and cries for “more.”
