Pianist Jason Coleman to perform in Arlington Hts.

The Northwest Suburban Community Concert Association, in partnership with District 214 Community Education, announced its fourth and final concert of the 2011-2012 season will feature Jason Coleman, grandson of the famous pianist Floyd Cramer.

The concert will be at 3 p.m. Sunday, April 29, at Forest View Educational Center Theater, 2121 S. Goebbert Road, in Arlington Heights.

Jason Coleman, grandson of the legendary Nashville pianist, Floyd Cramer, continues his family’s tradition in this nostalgic and entertaining tribute to his granddad.

Coleman began following in his grandfather’s footsteps at an early age, singing at only 2 years old on the stage of the Grand Ole Opry. At age 4, he sang and played on “Nashville Now,” and as a 9-year-old, played a memorable Christmas piano duet with Cramer on “Music City Tonight.”

Most recently Coleman debuted his much anticipated gospel album, “Faith.” The album features instrumental renditions of a blend of traditional hymns and modern songs of praise.

Coleman stays busy recording and performing, carrying on the legacy of his grandfather. While audiences love hearing Coleman perform the music of Floyd Cramer, they also enjoy discovering his own stylings. Coleman’s concerts are exciting experiences — and they always leave the crowds wanting more.
