1. Robert Glasper: A Glasper weekend is not quite the same as his Robtober takeover of the Blue Note Jazz Club in New York City, where a parade of special guests joins him. As demonstrated in his two Dakota engagements in 2023, the pianist’s expansive, genre-blending music is rooted in jazz but he brings in elements of hip-hop, R&B, gospel, rock and pop. He’s just as likely to pull out a Phil Collins tune, a Radiohead riff or a Kendrick Lamar joint. The five-time Grammy winner is comfortable in any genre, as he has demonstrated on his collaborations with Common, Herbie Hancock, Christina Aguilera, Mary J. Blige and Stevie Wonder, among others.
