Tony & Antonia Bennett in Charlottesville.

Legendary jazz and pop singer Tony Bennett will be in Charlottesville for a concert performance October 13th at the nTelos Wireless Pavilion. Bennett will be joined in Charlottesville by his daughter Antonia.

Bennett is entering his seventh decade as a recording artist with 17 Grammy® Awards including the Grammy® Lifetime Achievement Award to his credit. Bennett remains the Columbia recording artist with the greatest longevity at the label; when his Duets II cd debuted at #1 (his very first) on the Billboard Album charts in September 2011, it made him the oldest artist to achieve the top spot at age 85.

Antonia Bennett has performed in opera houses, casinos, jazz clubs and amphitheaters worldwide. Her timeless qualities are reminiscent of the great female jazz vocalists of the twentieth century.

Proceeds from the night will benefit the UVA Cancer Center and the Compassionate Care Initiative at UVA School of Nursing.
