Joe performs “Happiness … A Thing Called Stride”, at the Mainstay, Rock Hall, MD
"Pianist Joe Holt is a soloist extraordinaire - an intense musician with terrific chops (who) shows you he means business" - Cam Miller, The American Rag, Sept, 2011
Joe writes:
"I'm excited to return to the Mainstay stage for a performance that takes me back to my first exposure to jazz piano: stride. Stride Piano is one of the very few (wholly) self accompanying approaches to jazz, and nearly a lost art. "Modern" jazz education doesn't teach it, so in order to learn it, you have to live it. What I soon discovered on this path, is that "stride piano" is less about a point in history (where pianists played in a particular style), and more about a self accompanying approach to performance, that has evolved through second, third and forth generations of self accompanying solo pianists. Come, and ride the wave with me; through the ripples of Ragtime, the pulsing of stride masters James P Johnson and Fats Waller, the happy (grunting) lilt of Erroll Garner, the driving swing of Dave McKenna. Then after all that, I'll have a few surprises up my sleeve to help drive home the point that jazz is, at the core, happy music; that touches the human spirit, and connects everyone in earshot. At least that's how I see it. Hope you can join me."

Joe returns to the Church Hill Theatre, this time to the stage.
An evening of solo piano; from classical themes to popular standards to contemporary melodies (and a surprise or two) - all improvised.
From a recent review:
"The piano man is back. Nobody - and I mean nobody - plays the 88 keys with more fervor than Joe Holt. Leading scientists from around the world concur that it is physically impossible to display any more pleasure than Joe does when he performs. It's borderline selfish, because, as amazing as it is to hear him, he still looks like he's having more fun than anyone else in the room...His animated gestures and facial expressions really serve to capture an audience. It's less like you're sitting in a concert hall, and more intimate, like you've snuck into his living room and are hiding behind the curtain as he plays all by himself."
