Wednesday, July 17 | 6:30 pm

Chris Caporale is a Cincinnati-based jazz pianist and educator. At a young age, Chris gravitated toward the piano, sparking a lifelong passion for improvisation in all its forms. His fresh, forward driven sound at the piano is equally balanced with his deep appreciation for the jazz tradition, evident in the bluesy touch and thoughtful rhythms in his playing. A 2022 graduate of the University of Cincinnati-College Conservatory of Music, Chris maintains an active performance schedule and can be heard in venues all across the region. Recent performance accolades include being the Yamaha prize winner and finalist in the 2022 American Jazz Pianist Competition, as well as receiving a piano honorable mention at the Jazz at Lincoln Center’s 2022 Jack Rudin competition. In addition to performing, Chris is an active educator, teaching Jazz Piano as adjunct faculty at Xavier University, and he is the collaborative jazz pianist for Northern Kentucky University’s vocal jazz program.
