Live in Palm Springs Los Angeles pianist Michael Ragonese has emerged as one of the most compelling voices in modern jazz, combining virtuosic technique with lyrical storytelling and a deeply personal musical vision. Equally influenced by the jazz tradition and his classical roots, his performances balance sophistication, emotion, and adventurous improvisation. A sought-after performer, Ragonese has shared the stage with artists ranging from Barbra Streisand and Tom Jones to Walter Smith III, Bennie Maupin, Dave Koz, and Tierney Sutton. His acclaimed recordings, including Chasing Calm, have earned praise for their thoughtful compositions, rich textures, and striking originality. Whether leading his own quartet or collaborating with some of today's finest musicians, Ragonese creates music that is elegant, expressive, and deeply engaging—inviting listeners into a world where technical mastery serves the song, and every note tells a story. 🎠 Welcome to Carousel at the Cascade Lounge!
