He’s released six albums, including his latest, All Together Now, and collaborated extensively with choreographers and served as music director for a multi-media dance company founded by his wife, a former Martha Graham dancer.
Talltisch, who was raised in Westlake and Bay Village before heading to the University of Cincinnati College Conservatory of Music to get his B.A., will celebrate a double-barreled homecoming this week when he performs at Akron’s Blu Jazz on Friday and Cleveland’s Bop Stop on Saturday, with a trio including drummer Jordan Young and organist Brian Charette.
