Quintin Harris

Jazz pianist, singer and actor Quintin Harris is currently in the undergraduate Jazz Performance program at William Paterson University under the tutelage of Bill Charlap and Geoffrey Keezer. In the last few years, Quintin has worked (and studied) alongside many established performers of the New York scene, including Pete McGuinness, Natalie Douglas, Klea Blackhurst, Aaron Diehl, Ben Paterson, Stephen DeRosa, and many more. Quintin made his professional stage debut at the age of 5 as the Lord High Drummer Boy in Gilbert & Sullivan's The Gondoliers alongside his father, baritone Lawrence Harris and has since appeared in musicals, operas, and plays in the New York City area. He has performed as a soloist in Italy at the Narnia International Music Festival as well as the Meta Musicale televised on Italian TV.
As a teenager and young adult, Quintin has received acting training through HB Studios and The Wooster Group. As a teenager, he was nominated by National Youth Arts for “Outstanding Lead Performance” for his role as George Gibbs in Our Town. Recently, he made his return at NYC's Don't Tell Mama with an original show entitled Mr. Harris & Mr. Edwards which has quickly gained popularity through BroadwayWorld and Theater Pizzazz. After the success in recent critic reviews, Quintin’s show was recently nominated for “Best Debut Show” in the 2021 BroadwayWorld Cabaret Awards for his show Mr. Harris & Mr. Edwards. Through BroadwayWorld.com, his piano skills were described as “in the style of Oscar Peterson,” and his voice mentioned “...a star turn for Mr. Harris… With his fine playing and almost dreamy singing, this might have been a hit record in another era.”
