World renowned jazz musician, Ronny Whyte will be performing a benefit concert for the Ivoryton Players on Saturday, April 30th at 7pm at Centerbrook Meeting House in Centerbrook, CT.

Mr. Whyte will be performing an evening of songs from The Great American Songbook - including works by Gershwin, Cole Porter, and Rodgers and Hammerstein.

Ronny Whyte is not only considered a premier interpreter of classic American popular song, he is also an outstanding jazz pianist and an award winning song writer. He has been featured on Marian McPartland's Piano Jazz on NPR and his lyric Forget the Woman was recorded by Tony Bennet. He produces and hosts Midtown Jazz at Midday in St. Peter's in Manhattan and was inducted into the Cabaret Jazz Hall of Fame.

Whitney Balliett wrote in The New Yorker "Whyte (handsome, dapper, easygoing) is a first class cabaret singer. His diction sparkles...his songs ring and float and shine."

Ronny Whyte will be accompanied by bassist Boots Maleson and there will be a special guest appearance by Deborah Mott. Tickets are $25 and are available by calling 860 767 78318 or can be purchased at the door (seating is limited). There will be a reception following the performance.
