Silent Auction, Dinner And Live Performance By LINDA PURL - SUNDAY, AUGUST 21 At 5pm

World-renowned guitarist and singer John Pizzarelli has been hailed for reinvigorating the Great American Songbook and re-popularizing jazz. Over the years, he expanded his repertoire to include songs by Paul McCartney, Joni Mitchell, Neil Young, Tom Waits, Antônio Carlos Jobim and The Beatles. His interest in Frank Sinatra led him to dedicate two albums to the legendary vocalist: “Dear Mr. Sinatra” and “Sinatra & Jobim @ 50.” 

He came to Cincinnati an unknown and eventually became the most famous bootlegger of his era. His name was GEORGE REMUS – and now, his story will be told as only The Carnegie can starting this June and running through August.
