Eddie and Quincy Bullen, father and Son Jazz musicians, deliver a powerful and entertaining concert musically celebrating the relationship between an immigrant father and his young son. Speaking to the timeline of sacrifice to triumph, and of one generation passing its best on to the next, the narrative and the specific musical pieces of Dueling Pianos are deliberately selected to demonstrate the pain and joy – the “Giant Steps” (John Coltrane) that are necessary in reaching for and attaining excellence.  As father and son “duel”, facing each other on two grand pianos, they masterfully incorporate renditions of musical classics from Jazz, Classical, Calypso, Reggae, Pop, Rock and The Blues into their story, showing how the father prepared his son to understand and embrace his historical roots, the roots of music and the world’s great musicians.

Father and Son Dueling Pianos is presented by Thunderdome Sounds. The concert at Oscar Peterson Concert Hall is part of a multi-city tour sponsored by TD Bank in celebration of Black History Month 2018.
