Jazz Fusion. Virtuosity. Imagination. An iconic composition. A legendary Vinnie Colaiuta recording. “City Nights” 🌃🥁🔥

With honorary doctorate recipient Vinnie Colaiuta in the audience, graduating pianist Omarito performs Gary Husband’s “City Nights” at the Berklee Commencement Concert, paying homage to Colaiuta’s mind-bending drumming on legendary guitarist Allan Holdsworth’s beloved trio recording on Secrets. Originally conceived by Husband on keyboards, Omarito returns ‘City Nights” to its keyboard roots. 🎓🎹🥁
