Albert Rivera is a jazz star with Litchfield connections that go back more than two decades.

Albert will be joined for this Valentine’s show by pianist Alejandra Williams, drummer Ian Carroll, vocalist Anson Jones, and a special guest from Seoul South Korea, bassist Sean Pentland.  Pentland is currently touring the US with noted saxophonist Jerry Bergonzi introducing their upcoming release Windward. He returns in July to join the Litchfield Jazz Camp faculty and appear on opening night of the Litchfield Jazz Festival, July 24th.
