John Pizzarelli and The Swing 7

The HOPE Center for the Arts is proud to welcome celebrated guitarist and vocalist John Pizzarelli with his Swing 7 Project, a joyful tribute to the timeless music of Frank Sinatra. Known for his effortless charm, impeccable musicianship, and witty stage presence, Pizzarelli has long been one of the leading interpreters of the Great American Songbook. With this swinging ensemble, he brings fresh energy to Sinatra’s legendary repertoire, blending reverence for tradition with a lively, contemporary touch.

Backed by a handpicked septet of top jazz players, Pizzarelli revisits the iconic arrangements that defined Sinatra’s career—from unforgettable ballads to high-flying swing numbers. Audiences can expect classics like “Come Fly With Me,” “I’ve Got You Under My Skin,” and “The Lady Is a Tramp,” delivered with both authenticity and inventive flair. It’s an evening that bridges nostalgia and discovery, inviting both longtime jazz lovers and new audiences to experience the enduring magic of Sinatra’s songbook.

Part of the HOPE Center’s inaugural season, this concert highlights the venue’s commitment to presenting world-class artists who embody the richness of American music. Pizzarelli’s artistry, combined with the Swing 7’s big-hearted sound, sets the stage for a celebratory night of rhythm, romance, and swing. Join us as we open our doors to an evening of music that continues to inspire across generations.
