Since their 1996 debut at New York’s Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall, the duo of Darrell Grant (piano) and Dmitri Matheny (flugelhorn) has solidified their reputation as “pioneers and champions of the chamber jazz movement” [Public Radio International].

Exploring the lyricism, the swing, and the soul of songs, GRANT & MATHENY blend the intimate elegance of European chamber music with the playful, spontaneous spirit of American jazz.

Spicing each show with personal stories and warm camaraderie, GRANT & MATHENY are the modern day heirs to a legacy that reaches back to the days of vaudeville. They are following in the footsteps of legendary entertainers who pioneered the art of duo performance: Williams & Walker, Sissle & Blake, Mitchell & Ruff, Armstrong & Hines.

Now celebrating their 14th performance season, GRANT & MATHENY continue to refine the singular chamber jazz style they first developed over a decade ago.
