Great evening, the band was awesome. This was a highlight of my Florida trip and will return next year. The talent on the stage was phenomenal, they blended their sounds perfectly, a joy to hear!! Rare today to hear experienced musicians playing so superbly, can’t wait til next year!!!
Nice treat after 38 months away from the venue, "Thank You" pandemic and Dr. Fauci ! Played many of my favorites : "Splanky" "Lil Darlin", "Shiny Stockings", "April in Paris", (No mention that it was a Wild Bill Davidson Arrangement) "Whirlibird" "Jumpin' at the Woodside", "Corner Pocket" among others. Appreciated the Neal Hefti recognition and his contributions to the Basie book. Next year, ... get the DIVA Band ! Go here : www.divajazz.com/ They're amazing! I've been a fan of theirs for over 30 years. Have seen them perform, in person, many times, including on a jazz cruise along with the cream of the jazz community. Check it out !!
Frank Derrick and his Big Band were spectacular! As soon as they started the first set we knew we were in for a great evening. We thought all the musicians had played together for a long time, but Mr. Derrick told the audience that they had just practiced together that day. We love the big band sound and the expertise of all 16 musicians. Mr. Derrick was superb on the drums! We look forward to seeing him again at the Amaturo next season with the Gold Coast Jazz Society!
Talk about an intimate venue for great jazz… there is not a bad seat at the Amaturo Theatre. We were fortunate enough to watch the entire GoldCoast Jazz Series with one left to go in May and they were all outstanding in their own special way. Can’t wait to see the 2023-2024 lineup!!
Excellent experience. Show was excellent. Very talented trio Played great music Great venue
Chuchito Valdes and his quartet were fantastic. Great group of musicians. Chuchito plays the piano like the best. I highly recommend seeing this quartet.
The band was great and they played for a really long time. The musicians were smiling a lot which was nice to see. The venue is beautiful and the valet parking was convenient. Highly recommended.
We really enjoyed the Chichito Valdes Jr. Quartet. Chichito is very charismatic and entertaining with his Latin Jazz style. The base, bongos, and drums blended perfectly with his piano. I highly recommend this jazz quartet!
South Florida family and friends made this show even more intimate.
Emmet Cohen has a wonderful stage personality and truly relates to the audience. He is a must see along with his side men.
My mom and I shared such a special night out on Dec 7. going to see this live jazz performance at the amaturo theater was such a treat for her and myself. while I grew up in this area I haven’t been back to the broward Center in many years and the night couldn’t have been better! It was a perfect Wednesday night out - delicious dinner , glass of wine and parking nearby! The venue itself is so gorgeous & impressive. to be Able to hear one of the most talented trios in the jazz world today in such an Exquisite space was a real gift!!!! :)
My husband and I really enjoyed the Emmet Cohen Trio! They played a variety of music and each musician played his instrument at the highest level. Emmet Cohen spoke to the audience several times and talked about his and the other band members' backgrounds. He is very charismatic and a wonderful band leader. I highly recommend the Emmet Cohen Trio!
Excellent acoustics and superb musicians made this event memorable.
Have you ever made a faux pas? Well I invited a friend to join me for a special night out. We arrived early as to see the area have a cocktail and be prepared for a phenomenal performance. Unfortunately we were a day late!!!! I was so disappointed for my friend who almost never goes out. What can be done about that?? Paid for two good seats, parking and sadly for both of us no musical soirée. So an evening with Emmett I’m certain would have been something to cherish.
Did not attend due to coronavirus virus concerns. Surprised that the event was not cancelled given the CDC guidance of March 7th.
They were awesome! We love that genre of jazz and we had wonderful evening enjoying such jazz masters.
We knew that John Pizzarelli would be great. His 2 accompanists were as amazing as him. It was a great night
The Amaturo Theater is intimate for performances. The performance by John Pizzarelli was fantastic! He is a great entertainer. The music by he and his artists was world class.
What can I say! John Pizzarelli is an incredible talent. I have seen him perform a number of times! If you like anything jazz go see him!
A great performance and venue. A visitor and would definitely come again.
