About This Event

Musical Style: Vocal Jazz Tony Bennett (1926–2023) was a legendary jazz and American standards vocalist. Across an iconic career spanning seven decades he sold over 50 million records and won 20 Grammy Awards. Bennett fought in the final stages of WWII. He was also given a Lifetime Achievement Award, along with many other accolades. Throughout his life Tony Bennett was a dedicated pacifist and proactive humanitarian. Bennett’s love for his country and belief in civil rights earned him the distinction of national treasure, and the United Nations named him a Citizen of the World. Bennett marched with Dr. King in the historical Selma-to-Montgomery Civil Rights Movement, and the Martin Luther King Center in Atlanta bestowed upon him their Salute to Greatness Award for his efforts in fighting racial discrimination. Musically, Bennett continued to create and adapt throughout his life. One example of his position as a mainstay is his collaborative jazz album with Lady Gaga, released in 2014, Tony Bennett & Lady Gaga: Cheek To Cheek. This album debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top 200 album charts, making Bennett, at the age of 88, the oldest artist to have a #1 album. There's so much more to learn about the great Tony Bennett.
