Musicianship was great, sound quality not as much
by JaxBigDaddy on 4/22/13Ponte Vedra Concert Hall - Ponte Vedra BeachThis show provided an excellent opportunity to see one of the Masters of today's contemporary jazz in David Benofit. I also enjoyed the introduction to Brian Culbertson. The future of the genre' is in good hands. IMO, David Benoit can be considered the Dave Brubek of our time. His songs bring an original sound that surprises and delights the listener. The Ponte Vedra Concert Hall provided a wonderful environment in which to enjoy an intimate show. My only knock, however, was the sound quality of the pianos. I thought the sound was shrill and tinny and not at all representative of the potential the Steinways could provide. All things considered, I would definitely recommend this show - hopefully with better audio set up.
