Bio
Named a “rising star violinist” by Downbeat Magazine, Aaron Weinstein is quickly earning a reputation as one of the finest jazz violinists of his generation. As a featured soloist, Aaron has performed at Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, Wolftrap Center for the Performing Arts, Chicago's Orchestra Hall, the JVC Jazz Festival, the Iridium, Birdland, and abroad at festivals and clubs in France, England Iceland, Switzerland, Israel, and China. Aaron has performed and recorded with and an array of jazz icons including: Les Paul, Howard Alden, Dave Frishberg, Scott Hamilton, Dick Hyman, Houston Person, Bucky Pizzarelli, John Pizzarelli, Annie Ross, Warren Vache, and Frank Vignola, as well as New York Pops founder/conductor, Skitch Henderson. He is a recent graduate of the Berklee College of Music in Boston, Massachusetts, where he was awarded a full four-year talent-based scholarship. While still in high school, he founded New Trier High School's Stephane Grappelli Tribute Trio, voted as the nation's best high school instrumental jazz group by Downbeat Magazine in 2002. Aaron has won various competitions including the 1998 and 2001 Illinois State Fiddle Championships, making him the youngest performer ever to hold this title. With the release of Aaron’s Arbors Records debut, "A Handful of Stars", (called “the rebirth of the hot jazz violin” by Nat Hentoff) Aaron has become the youngest jazz musician to have recorded as leader for this prestigious traditional jazz record label. -

"When my day job reporting on genocide in Darfur and the constant struggle to keep the Bill of Rights alive here bring me down, I have to put some music on. From now on, one of the first CDs I'll reach for is this conversation, and that's what jazz is between Aaron Weinstein and John Pizzarelli. As this session invigoratingly demonstrates, while a standard rhythm section can be incandescent (with Jo Jones, say, on drums), a true jazz improviser can be his or her own rhythm section. And when there are two players, for whom swinging is a s natural as breathing, you get the music you have in your hand.".. -....Nat Hentoff.., jazz critic for The Wall Street Journal.. .. ...... .... .. ....- Select Discography -.... .. .... .. .. .. .. .. .. ..Aaron Weinstein.... ..A Handful of Stars....
