The series opens on Tuesday, March 29, with an appearance by brilliant jazz clarinetist Anat Cohen with Brazilian seven-string-guitar master Marcello Gonçalves. Ever charismatic, prolific, and inspired, Grammy-nominated Anat Cohen has won hearts and minds the world over. About a performance the New York Times wrote: “Ms. Cohen was a revelation . . . On up-tempo numbers, her improvisations weren’t just bebop fast; they had a clarity and deep intelligence that is really quite rare. She made it look effortless, even as she was playing the most technically difficult of all the reed instruments . . . she took my breath away.” Cohen and Gonçalves’s first duo album, Outra Coisa: The Music of Moacir Santos, was nominated for a Grammy as Best Latin Jazz Album in 2017. Last year they recorded their second collaboration, Reconvexo, turning to music from the Música Popular Brasileira (MPB) songbook by artists such as Caetano Veloso, Milton Nascimento, and Gilberto Gil.
Because of the ongoing construction project at Scripps Research, our annual three-concert spring series will be relocated this year to the Athenaeum library, so seating will be limited and early reservations are advised!
The concerts will be in person at the Athenaeum Music & Arts Library. There are no physical tickets for these events. Your name will be on an attendee list at the front door. Doors open at 7 p.m. Seating is first-come; first-served. These events will be presented in compliance with State of California and County of San Diego health regulations as applicable at the time of each concert. Face coverings are required for attendees, regardless of vaccination status. Proof of vaccination or negative test within 48 hours of the event is required. Event capacity is limited to 70% for now.
