Pete transformed a tiny beach-side shack into one of the most intimate
and vibrant jazz venues in the world. Through the years, our concert
hall has come alive with a long list of jazz legends, including Betty
Carter, Bill Evans, Dexter Gordon, Stan Getz, Max Roach, McCoy Tyner,
Bobby Hutcherson, Art Blakey, Etta James, Milt Jackson, and Eliane
Elias, to name just a few. It’s no wonder that the Bach has been listed
as a DownBeat magazine “Great Jazz Venue” for several years running.
And beyond jazz, we have featured classic notables including the Kronos
Quartet and Mariano Cordoba. Pete’s vision and spirit live on at the
Bach through his daughters, as they carry on with a unique mix of
quality local, upcoming, and world class programming.
