MANCHESTER, NH — For more than 60 Years, the Charlie Brown Christmas special has endured the test of time and introduced generation after generation to the love and the music of the Peanuts characters created by Charles Schulz and the music by jazz legend Vince Guaraldi. On December 5 you can come experience one of the country’s most outstanding jazz quartets, the Eric Mintel Quartet, perform their Charlie Brown Jazz and more. Pianist and composer Eric Mintel and the Eric Mintel Quartet have been thrilling audiences of all ages with their electrifying jazz concerts and this is no exception.
Invited to perform twice at the White House for President Clinton in 1998 and President Obama 2011, several concerts at the Kennedy Center and a special concert at the United Nations, Eric Mintel has also been a featured guest on Marian McPartland’s Piano Jazz on NPR.
