Bill Frisell: 75th Birthday Celebration

2 upcoming performances in New York

At Jazz at Lincoln Center, “Bill Frisell: 75th Birthday Celebration” places the guitarist’s long New York story in context, in a city that helped shape his quiet influence on modern jazz. The program is framed by fellow artists in the lineup, including Danilo Pérez and Godwin Louis, and the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis, situating Frisell’s music beside wider currents in the music. Frisell’s writing has always blurred borders—jazz, folk, Americana—without treating genre as a rulebook. One clear takeaway: his restraint has been a defining artistic method, not an absence of ideas.
