If you're thinking it's been a while since Harold Danko's last annual concert, you're right. Danko's yearly event is held on leap-year day, so like the old man who has only celebrated 20 birthdays, this will be Danko's ninth annual concert in 33 years. Danko, professor of jazz studies and contemporary media at the Eastman School of Music, began the tradition in 1980 at the legendary club Birdland when he was teaching in New York City. Since then he's released two-dozen albums of excellent piano-centered music. In previous leap year concerts Danko has shared the stage with a variety of guests. This year we'll get to hear more of his eloquent style in a solo performance.
Harold Danko plays Wednesday, February 29 at 8 p.m. at Kilbourn Hall, 26 Gibbs St. $10, free with UR ID. 274-1100, esm.rochester.edu
