Fred Hersch Trio — Geneva Music Festival

Fred Hersch has spent decades making piano jazz that sounds like conversation — unhurried, attentive, specific. His trio brings that quality to Froelich Hall at the tail end of Memorial Day weekend, a fitting close to a week of exceptional music in the Finger Lakes. If the Hersch name isn't familiar yet, this is a good place to start.

Date: Saturday, May 30, 2026 Time: 7:30 PM Location: Gearan Center for the Performing Arts – Froelich Hall, Geneva, NY Cost: Free – $40
