Bay Area Kenny Barron fans are in for a treat this month.
Actually, they are in for a number of different treats, as the legendary jazz pianist visits SFJAZZ Center to perform four very different shows in four nights.
First up, Barron — whose talent has graced literally 100s of recordings since he got his start in the late 1950s — leads his quintet into the San Francisco venue on April 10 to perform music from his latest album, “Beyond This Place,” as well as other pieces. Besides Barron, this terrific group also includes bassist Christian McBride, saxophonist Immanuel Wilkins, drummer Johnathan Blake and trumpeter Mike Rodriguez.
He follows up that opener with a solo piano show on April 11 and then performs with a chamber orchestra on April 12. Barron closes the SFJAZZ Center run on April 13 with the West Coast premiere of new chamber work with harmonica player Grégoire Maret, flutist Elena Pinderhughes and cellist Noah Johnson.
Kenny Barron tickets start at $35, sfjazz.org.
Barron is also set to perform a sold-out show with his trio on April 14 at Kuumbwa Jazz Center in Santa Cruz. For more information, visit kuumbwajazz.org.
