The 7th Annual Piano Showcase at the Tower Theatre features acclaimed blues and boogie woogie pianist Arthur Migliazza. Enjoy solo performances and improvisational fun celebrating the versatility and virtuosity of the piano.

Arthur Migliazza began playing the piano professionally at the age of 13. It was through his love of blues music and his dedication to the piano that he came under the wing of such mentors/teachers as Henry Butler, Ann Rabson and Mr. B.  He has been inducted into the Arizona Blues Hall of Fame, was a finalist at the 2010 and 2014 International Blues Challenge in Memphis, TN, and in his 30+ years of performing has played on some of the world’s greatest stages, including Tchaikovsky Hall in Moscow as part of the sold out Kings of Boogie Tour, Birdland Jazz Club in New York City, Benaroya Hall in Seattle, as well as on National Public Radio in the US.

Piano Showcase is sponsored in part by an Arts & Culture grant from Deschutes County Commissioners.
