Munson-Williams-Proctor Arts Institute is the setting for The Freddy Cole Quartet

Virtuoso pianist and jazz vocalist Freddy Cole captivates listeners with his refined presence and intimate singing style. With the panache of Duke Ellington and a voice like raw silk, he has emerged from the awesome shadow cast by his brother, Nat "King" Cole. His suave, elegant and articulate phrasing has been compared to Frank Sinatra and Billie Holiday. Through several tours of the US, Europe, South America and the Far East, Cole has risen to the highest ranks of America's art form with his singular charm and his matchless musical sophistication.

Munson-Williams-Proctor Arts Institute is the setting for The Freddy Cole Quartet on Saturday, February 28, 2009. The concert is sponsored by Innovative Resources and is part of the vibrant and highly-successful Concert in the Court series at one of the region’s most exciting live performance venues. Innovative Resources is a proud supporter of the Munson-Williams-Proctor Arts Institute.
