88 KEYS: Celebraed jazz pianist Taylor Eigsti premiers new material live at the Dinkelspiel Auditorium.

Bay Area-born jazz pianist and composer Taylor Eigsti is a force to be reckoned with in the contemporary jazz community. Coming up under the wing of West Coast jazz legend Dave Brubeck, the child prodigy and Grammy-nominated virtuoso rose to fame in the early 2000s. Now based in New York, he’s worked with modern stars like Eric Harland and Gretchen Parlatto. Eigsti’s breathtaking technical facility and timeless compositional voice cements his status in the lineage of groundbreaking jazz pianists. He will premiere his upcoming album, Tree Falls—slated for release early next year—at his Stanford Jazz Festival appearance.
