Wharton Center for Performing Arts

One of the most innovative and influential guitarists of his generation, Kurt Rosenwinkel has been called “the sound of the future” (Chicago Tribune). With a career that began in the 1990s as a sideman with such singular artists as Gary Burton, Joe Henderson, and Paul Motian—and that now includes explorations of Brazilian music, electro-acoustic programming, the music of Chopin, and so much more—Rosenwinkel’s artistry is defined equally by his appetite for invention as it is his unbelievable playing. He now leads his own band in this extremely exciting Carnegie Hall debut.
