Over the past half-century, jazz guitarist Gene Bertoncini has played with Wayne Shorter, Buddy Rich, Tony Bennett, and the Metropolitan Opera House Orchestra. On his recent CD, "Concerti," Bertoncini is joined by a string quartet and bass, playing arrangements written by Eastman School of Music colleagues. Needless to say, he excels in any setting, but Bertoncini is perhaps best known for his extraordinary solo work. No small part of any Bertoncini performance is his sense of humor. If he weren't such a great guitarist, I might be writing about his upcoming comedy show at Kilbourn Hall.
Gene Bertoncini plays Friday, July 23, 7:30-9:30 p.m. at Kilbourn Hall, 26 Gibbs St. $5-$10. 454-2100.
