The EarRegulars feature leader Jon-Erik Kellso on trumpet and Matt Munisteri on guitar
and showcase a changing roster of guest artists. They have been playing (almost)
every week (pre-pandemic) Sunday nights at the Ear Inn since at least 2008. They
play swinging, melodic classic jazz, i.e. everything from New Orleans style through
the Tin Pan Alley classics, the swing era, and mainstream jazz. Listeners will find
the swingingest players in New York City playing with them, as well as the best from
all over the world guesting when in town. We're looking forward to the roster Jon
brings with him to our Tri-State engagement!
This event will be a streaming event - click Concert Details below to get more information.
Looking Ahead:
Domingo Mancuello – Piano
April 18, 2021 - 2:00
A LIVE STREAMING EVENT

Pianist Domingo Mancuello brings ragtime melodies (and more!) to Tri-State Jazz in
April. Mancuello has played piano since age 4 - and discovered ragtime when his
grandfather sang with a barbershop quartet.. He has apprenticed at Philadelphia's
Walnut Theatre, graduated from the University of the Arts, and worked as production
assistant at the Fulton Theatre, Lancaster, while also pursuing his passion for ragtime.
He tries to preserve an old tradition while refreshing it for the 21st century. In
addition to performing the repertoire, Mancuello is a composer in his own right -
his The Bomba Walk - A Syncopated Frenzy was included in a 'new piano rag' compilation
on Rivermont Records, released in 2019. Watch this streaming concert to hear ragtime,
plus obscure (and not so obscure) '20s pop tunes.
