Guitarist, whistler, and greatest living harmonica virtuoso, Toots Thielemans has played with everyone from Benny Goodman to Paul Simon. With performances as varied as the Midnight Cowboy soundtrack, the Sesame Street theme, and that famous whistling Old Spice commercial, Thielemans' ability to create emotional connections has made him a favorite worldwide. A pianist of seemingly infinite capacity, Kenny Werner takes audiences on lyrical but never predictable journeys through the vast seas of improvised music. With effortless playing, Werner
redefines the innovation and intensity at the heart of jazz music's spontaneity. Together, Thielemans and Werner create an exciting and varied tapestry of eclectic musical conversations.

"The partnership of harmonica virtuoso Toots Thielemans and pianist Kenny
Werner is one of the great pleasures of contemporary jazz."
-- The Los Angeles Times
