Join Leonard for a special Leonard Lopate at Large with master instrumentalist. Kenny Werner has been a world-class pianist and composer for over 40 years. His prolific collection of recordings, both as a bandleader and a sideman performing with jazz luminaries like Lee Koonitz and Archie Shepp, continue to have a profound effect on audiences around the world. In 1996, Kenny wrote his landmark book “Effortless Mastery: Liberating The Master Musician Within.” He has since created videos, lectured worldwide and authored numerous articles on how musicians, artists or even business people can allow their “master creator” within to lift a performance to it’s highest level, showing us how to be spontaneous, fearless, joyful and disciplined in our work and in our life.
