Needham Bank Great Hall Concert Series Presents Danilo Perez

NEEDHAM, Mass. - May 15, 2013 - PRLog -- May 13, 2013, Needham, MA. Needham Bank demonstrates its continued support for the Arts in Needham by presenting Panamanian Jazz Pianist Danilo Perez as part of the Great Hall Concert Series.

Danilo Perez, a Grammy winning pianist whose style transcends cultures and genres, will visit the James Hugh Powers Hall in the Needham Town Hall at 1471 Highland Avenue, Needham, MA, on May 18, 2013 at 8:00PM.

Mr. Perez has performed all over the world, and has shared the stage with the likes of Dizzy Gillespie, Wayne Shorter, Wynton Marsalis, Jack DeJohnette, and Ruben Blades.

While originally from Panama, when he is not touring, Mr. Perez makes his home in Boston, and is artistic director of the Berklee College of Music Global Jazz Institute.

“We are delighted to bring Mr. Perez to the Great Hall Concert Series,” said Mark Whalen, President and Chief Operating Officer of Needham Bank. “Mr. Perez is an influential, dynamic, and memorable performer, and the concert at Powers Hall is sure to be remembered as one of the highlights of this year’s Series!”

“The Great Hall Concert series is extremely fortunate to have this international Jazz star grace our stage,” said Michael Niden, President of the Great Hall Performance Foundation. “It’s a once in a lifetime opportunity, and wouldn’t be possible without the support of Needham Bank and the Needham Community!”

The Great Hall Concert Series, now in its second year, has become a draw from internationally recognized performers, from Tom Rush, to Tiger Okoshi, to Sierra Hull, and now Danielo Perez. Each of these performers has found the Great Hall Concert Series to be an exceptional venue, and the Needham Community to be an appreciative audience.

Tickets for Danilo Perez at the Great Hall Concert Series are available online at http://greathallperformance.org/ or by phone at 800-838-3006. Limited tickets will be sold at the door
