Peter Beets with Reuben Rogers & Willie Jones III

Renowned for his deep swing feel, masterful phrasing, and blues-infused touch, Dutch jazz pianist Peter Beets will make his Keystone Korner debut, alongside bassist Reuben Rogers and drummer Willie Jones III. With a career that includes collaborations with jazz greats like Chick Corea and Wynton Marsalis, and accolades such as the Prix Martial Solal and multiple Edison Jazz Award nominations and one win (Netherland’s Grammys), Beets is celebrated for his electrifying performances and inventive reinterpretations.

Imbued with both groove and spirit from birth, Reuben Rogers combined the calypso and reggae rhythms of his native Virgin Islands with the gospel sounds of the church and the freedom and
improvisation of jazz to create the unique chemistry that would make him one of the most distinctive and in-demand bassists in modern jazz. Rogers’ versatile mastery of both the acoustic and electric bass has led to opportunities on stages around the world alongside some of the music’s most renowned artists, including Charles Lloyd, Wynton Marsalis, Joshua Redman, Tomasz Stanko, Roy Hargrove, Marcus Roberts, Nicholas Payton, Mulgrew Miller, Jackie McLean and Dianne Reeves, among many others.
