.The Piano Guys at San Jose Civic

The name might be a trifle misleading: this Utah-based classical crossover group features a pianist (Jon Schmidt) but he’s just one-fourth of the lineup. The Piano Guys also include Steven Sharp Nelson on cello and two producers, Paul Anderson and Al van der Beek. Like Postmodern Jukebox (another act operating on the fringes of the pop world), the Piano Guys are a YouTube sensation, with cumulative viewership of their inventive music videos approaching the 2 billion mark. They’re a consistent hit on both the classical and New Age charts, and their pop mashups bridge the gap between pop and more serious forms.
