The Lark Theater Presents BILL EVANS REMEMBERED

The Lark Theater presents Bill Evans Remembered - Film and Live Music on Thursday, August 22nd at 7:30pm at the Lark Theater, 549 Magnolia Ave., Larkspur, CA.

The Lark Theater presents a special evening of live music and film paying tribute to the legendary jazz pianist and composer, Bill Evans.

At 7:30pm, the Dick Fregulia Bill Evans Tribute Trio will perform an all Bill Evans repertoire on the Vickie Soulier Stage, followed by a screening of Time Remembered: The Life and Music of Bill Evans. The acclaimed documentary film is produced by Bruce Spiegel and tells the story of Bill Evans' turbulent life and his contribution to jazz music.

"Eight years in the making, Bruce Spiegel's touching documentary on the life and music of the late, great, and mysterious pianist is a must-see for jazz history buffs, as well as for anyone who enjoys cool, impressionistic piano-the style Bill Evans pioneered beginning in the early 1950's and owned and expanded up to his death in 1980 at the age of 51. The categories are broad enough to include scores of listeners. Because isn't it true that, once one hears him-whether leading his brilliant trio with Scott LaFaro and Paul Motian on Sunday At The Village Vanguard, or anchoring the celestial Miles Davis Kind Of Blue sextet-everyone digs Bill Evans." - Peter Jurew, All About Jazz
