The Mondavi Center for the Performing Arts announced a time change for the Tony Bennett concert Wednesday night (May 25), pushing the start time back a half-hour to 8:30 p.m.

A news release attributes the time change to Bennett's unanticipated travel conflicts.

Bennett is performing at the Mondavi Center for the first time. A limited number of tickets remained as of midafternoon today (May 24), when the news release went out about the time change.

As Pink Martini bandleader and pianist Thomas Lauderdale said, “If the United Nations had a house band in 1962, then hopefully we’d be that band.” Pink Martini’s latest album is Splendour in the Grass, described as a virtual carnival of musical influences, with one grand purpose: to rebuild a culture that sings and dances. 8 p.m. Tuesday, July 5, Jackson Hall.

• Return to Forever IV — The much honored jazz-rock fusion ensemble is making one of its storied returns to action, almost 40 years after appearing on the scene.

Zappa Plays Zappa — founded by Dweezil Zappa, son of the late Frank Zappa — shares the bill. 8 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 21, Jackson Hall.
