After Hours PLUS
November 15, 2007, 7:00pm - Jazz at the Gardner: Chris Enright Quintet A cum laude graduate of Berklee College of Music, Chris Enright is a jazz pianist and composer with a variety of influences, from Brad Mehldau to The Bad Plus, but a uniquely personal sound. His performance at the Gardner is the first in a collaboration with Berklee, presenting the music school's finest students and young alumni in concert debuts at the museum. Listen.
Born in Rochester, New York and raised in Bath, Maine, Chris Enright has had a passion for music all of his life. After receiving considerable scholarships from Berklee College of Music's World Scholarship Tour, and Berklee's Entering Student Talent Scholarship, Chris left Bath and made his way to Boston where earned his bachelors degree in piano performance and jazz composition, graduating cum laude. During enrollment, Chris' musical skills were developed with the help of Berklee's exceptional faculty, including Danilo Perez, Joanne Brackeen, Hal Crook, Tiger Okoshi, Joe Lovano, and George Garzone. He also traveled and performed with Phil Wilson's Rainbow Band and Rainbow All-Stars. Both groups have appeared at the "Vineyard Vibes Jazz Festival" in Martha's Vineyard, as well as the "International Association of Jazz Educators Conference" in Long Beach, California. Outside of Berklee, Chris played piano and composed for a trombone ensemble called "Against The Grain." After forming, the group won and performed at the "Eastern Trombone Workshop" held in Washington DC, won and performed at the "International Trombone Festival" held in New Orleans, released a self-titled CD, and appeared in the July, 2004 issue of "JAZZIZ" magazine.
Program highlights include: a mix of Chris’s own compositions and jazz standards.
