Cleveland POPS Presents I Love a Piano With Tony DeSare

Tony DeSare is an up-and-coming piano whiz, signer and a composer. Press outlets have compared him to Harry Connick Jr, Michael Bublé and Jamie Cullum. The New York based musician performs classic American standards but also writes his own music and plays with a swinging piano style. In addition to being a talented player and singer, DeSare has looks and charisma. Tonight at 8 at Severance Hall, he will accompany the Cleveland POPS Orchestra as it runs through a number of tunes from piano legends such as Elton John, Ray Charles, Billy Joel, and more. This will be DeSare’s first live performance in Cleveland. Tickets range from $21 to $95. (Johnny Cook)
