How insanely talented is pianist Vijay Iyer? Well, when the bit about being a "tenured professor at Harvard" is near the bottom of your resume, you've got some serious credentials. Consider the fact that this composer-performer has -- deep breath -- won a MacArthur Genius Grant, been nominated for a Grammy, been called "boundless and deeply important" by LA Weekly and been named DownBeat Magazine's 2014 Pianist of the Year (just like he was in 2012, when he was also voted "Artist of the Year," "Small Group of the Year" [for the Vijay Iyer Trio], "Album of the Year," and "Rising Star Composer of the Year"). If you think Iyer sounds impressive on paper, just wait until you hear him in person at Cal Performances' Zellerbach Hall in Berkeley. In A Vijay Iyer Sampling, Iyer joins acclaimed violinist Stephanie Koh, trumpeter Wadada Leo Smith and a rhythm section for the Bay Area premieres of three new compositions.
