Peter Bernstein live in New York

Experience Peter Bernstein live on July 24th

Peter Bernstein will be performing at Birdland Theater in New York City on July 24, 2026. Bernstein is a highly regarded jazz guitarist known for his sophisticated harmonic sense and lyrical improvisations deeply rooted in the tradition of players like Jim Hall and Wes Montgomery. His style blends bebop fluency with a modern sensibility, often featuring a warm tone and subtle rhythmic interplay. He frequently leads trios and quartets, showcasing original compositions alongside interpretations of jazz standards.

Birdland Theater is a prominent jazz club located in the heart of Manhattan’s Theater District. Originally founded in 1949 as Birdland, a larger venue several blocks away, it quickly became legendary, hosting iconic performances by Charlie Parker, Miles Davis, John Coltrane, and countless others throughout the 1950s and early 60s. After closing in 1965, the name was revived in 1986 with a new location and has operated continuously since. The current Birdland Theater space opened in 2015 as an intimate extension of the main club, focusing on smaller ensemble performances and theatrical productions with a jazz focus.
