    Alice Coltrane Turiyasangitananda: The Ashram Experience 10/12/18

    Alice Coltrane Turiyasangitananda: The Ashram Experience
    Friday, 10/12/2018 – 08:00 pm – 11:00 pm
    North Beach Bandshell
    7275 Collins Avenue,
    Miami Beach, Florida 33141
    Website
    Cost: $30-$35

    MIAMI, FL (October, 2018) – What happens when you mix the mystical philosophy and music of India with the forward-leaning jazz of the legendary Alice Coltrane? That intoxicating, otherworldly yet deeply earthy music was nearly lost to history until David Byrne (of Talking Heads and more fame) and his Luaka Bop record label recently brought it back to the public with the release of a new album compilation. On Friday, October 12, South Florida audiences have the chance to hear that music live, from the Sai Anatam Singers, who originally performed Coltrane’s devotional compositions, including Alice’s musician daughter Michelle Coltrane, at the North Beach Bandshell, presented by The Rhythm Foundation.

    Alice Coltrane was an acclaimed jazz musician, composer, and the wife of John Coltrane, the most venerated and influential saxophonist in the history of jazz. In 1967, John died, leaving Alice a widow with four small children. Bereft of her soul mate Alice turned to Indian spirituality, eventually opening the Shanti Anantam Ashram. Music was the foundation of Alice’s spiritual practice and during this time she released recordings inspired by jazz and the gospel music of the Detroit churches she grew up in, mixed with the Indian music of her religious practice.

    This unique concert event, led by Surya Botofasina, an actor and musician who grew up in Coltrane’s ashram, continues The Rhythm Foundation’s eclectic 2018 fall season. “We are all so excited to not only pay tribute to the iconic Alice Coltrane with this event, but also to bring this powerful spiritual and musically moving concert to our North Beach Bandshell” says Par Neiburger, Artistic Director of The Rhythm Foundation.

    Tickets for the Friday, October 12, 8:00 pm Alice Coltrane Turiyasangitananda: The Ashram Experience concert are $30 in advance at tinyurl.com/AliceColtraneTix, and $35 at the door. The show takes place at the North Beach Bandshell, 7275 Collins Avenue, Miami Beach (North Beach neighborhood), which is fully wheelchair accessible. Ample on-street and public lot metered parking is available. For more information visit RhythmFoundation.com or call (305) 672-5203. To request materials in accessible format, sign language interpreters, or any disability accommodation, please contact The Rhythm Foundation five days in advance to initiate your request. TTY users may also call 711 (Florida Relay Service).

    The Rhythm Foundation, founded in 1988, is a non-profit cultural organization that is a foremost presenter of international music in the US. The Rhythm Foundation has presented concerts, festivals, and events featuring over 800 established and innovative artists from around the world. Special focus is given to those cultures connecting to South Florida audiences. In 2015 The Rhythm Foundation began year-round management of the North Beach Bandshell amphitheater for the City of Miami Beach. Their mission is to connect communities with the rich musical cultures of the world, with the aim of increasing global awareness through the presentation of live music as well as build and strengthen the diverse communities in South Florida through consistent shared cultural experiences.

    Support for The Rhythm Foundation, and this performance, comes in part from the Miami-Dade County Department of Cultural Affairs and Cultural Affairs Council and the Miami-Dade County Mayor and Board of County Commissioners; the City of Miami Beach, the Department of Tourism and Cultural Affairs and the Miami Beach Mayor and the City Commissioners; and the State of Florida, Department of State, Division of Cultural Affairs, and the Florida Council on Arts and Culture.

Every day leading up to National Coffee Day on Saturday, September 29, Colada guests are invited to cast their predictions, and then at 9 p.m. on National Coffee Day, the person who guessed the closest will be announced and receive an official Colada card for one free coffee a week for an entire year!

The popular breakfast menu features an assortment of coffees, including cortaditos, Cuban coffee, iced coffees and café americanos, along with a tempting list of breakfast sandwich options made with combinations of eggs, meats and cheeses. Lunch favorites consist of some traditional and some not-so-traditional choices, such as a Cuban Philly sandwich made with fresh ropa vieja, sweet and spicy guava chicken wings, empanadas or a make-your-own Colada bowl, which involves choosing a protein, base, toppings and a signature sauce. Fritas, guava pastries, croquettes and delectable desserts, including Cuban flan and tres leches, are also available.

    Cost: 20-25

    Since 1994, FIU’s Cuban Research Institute (CRI) has organized an annual concert series featuring music on Cuban themes by Cuban and other composers. The purpose of this public event is to celebrate, preserve, and promote the rich and diverse musical heritage of Cuba and its diaspora.

    CRI will hold the 14th installment of its Classically Cuban concert series on December 2, 2018, at the Wertheim Performing Arts Center of the FIU School of Music on the Modesto A. Maidique Campus. Virtuoso pianists and Cuban brothers Orlay Alonso and Orlando Alonso present an immersive experience that places the audience at the center of the “Golden Era” of Cuban music and entertainment of the 1940s and 1950s.

    From the sensuality and seductive melodies of the bolero, to the exotic and complex rhythms of the mambo and cha cha, Cuba’s musical heritage spans centuries and has influenced most popular music of our time. Presented by the Alonso Brothers, this interactive show features a variety of Cuban styles such as mambo, cha cha, salsa, bolero, son, danzón, and conga, and includes works by Celia Cruz, Ernesto Lecuona, Ignacio Cervantes, Miguel Faílde, and Dámaso Pérez Prado, among others.

    The Alonso Brothers
    Equally talented, these brothers dazzle with their artistic exuberance and passionate expression. Having played the piano since they each were six years old, Orlando Alonso and Orlay Alonso both attended the National School of the Arts in Havana and earned degrees from Manhattan School of Music and Yale University, among several other prestigious institutions. As a duo, each brother brings his own signature style to the stage. Inspired by their communicative gifts, elegance, and polish, the Alonso brothers shine with a charismatic stage presence that is a pleasure to behold.

    September 21 at 8: Arts Garage presents Greg Diamond and Nuance Quartet. Critically acclaimed guitarist, composer, and bandleader Greg Diamond creates music inspired by Latin American sounds and rhythms which he seamlessly infuses into the context of contemporary jazz — with modal harmonies, compound meters, and various other elements that comprise the vibrant and dynamic musical tapestry of his native city of New York. All About Jazz hails Diamond, who is of mixed Colombian and Jewish origin, as “a rising star in the New York jazz scene..” Latin Jazz Network writes that Diamond is a “composer of great maturity and genius” and featured his sophomore release “Conduit” [Dot Time 2012] as an Editor’s Pick for “Best Albums of 2012”. Indeed, Diamond has cultivated a distinguishable sound with his own his writing, a crack ensemble, and his use of the electric guitar — an instrument not often associated with this genre.

    Diamond and his group have performed at numerous premier New York venues such as: The Blue Note, Iridium Jazz Club, Joe’s Pub, Smalls Jazz Club, Zinc Bar, and Nublu; not to mention numerous festival presentations, among them: The Madrid International Jazz Festival, Barranquijazz Festival, Jimmy Glass Jazz Festival, Teatro Libre Jazz Festival, Medejazz Festival, Jazz al Parque Festival, and the Nublu Jazz Festival. In 2007 he was a semi-finalist at The Gibson International Jazz Guitar Competition hosted by The Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland, where he performed before jazz guitar legend George Benson. He has shared the stage with luminaries such as Seamus Blake, Steve Turre, Hector Martignon, Antonio Hart, John Benitez, Henry Cole, Oscar Stagnaro, Stacy Dillard, Emilio Solla, Michael Philip Mossman, Don Friedman, Gretchen Parlato, Asha Puthli, and many others.

    Arts Garage is located at 94 NE 2nd Ave in Delray Beach. Tickets are $30-35-40 at artsgarage.org or 561-450-6357. BRING YOUR OWN … WHATEVER! The theater boasts cabaret-style table seating, where patrons can bring their own food and drinks, including alcohol. Music courtesy of KCC Productions.

    Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbIWsOZSjsw

    “An accomplished composer and this, a rather admirable trait in any circumstance, is backed by greater musicianship – not mere virtuosity – with which to approach the guitar than many musicians on the instrument today” Raul Da Gama, Latin Jazz Network

    “…Diamond’s music is energetic and transcendental, a subjective vision of the artist realized in masterful form, where melody, harmony, and rhythm converge in a unique coalition that transmits with eloquence and great expressive force…” – José Antonio García López, tomajazz.com

    Cost: Free

    SPF’18 will take over FATVillage Saturday, November 10, 2018, for an epic, print-happy day of exhibitors, with a market of print, book and zine exhibitors from Fort Lauderdale, Miami, Boca Raton, Orlando, Gainesville and beyond, a giant steamroller pressing the largest prints of the fair, live demonstrations of print-making techniques, creation stations and art making activities, a stage of author and poets talks, a cabana with ice cold, locally crafted beer, food trucks and so much more!

    SPF’18 will showcase a diverse range of local and regional artists, printers, publishers, authors, poets, bookmakers, designers, zinesters and cultural workers, sharing and exhibiting new work related to printmaking, book making and zine creation.

    What is a zine? A zine (/ˈziːn/ ZEEN; short for magazine or fanzine) is most commonly a small-circulation, self-published work of original or appropriated texts and images, usually reproduced via photocopier or similarly inexpensive means. Zines are usually the product of a single person, or of a very small group. The primary intent is to advance the views of the creator rather than profit, since the time and materials necessary to create a zine are seldom matched by revenue from its sale. Zines tend to deal with subjects that are too controversial or niche for mainstream media.

    SPF’18 exhibitors will take over The Projects in FATVillage, Fort Lauderdale, a 8,000+ sq ft warehouse space, celebrating the growing interest and support for independent and small press artists and publishers that have fueled the sub-culture in South Florida for years.

    Funding for SPF’18 is provided in part by the Broward County Board of County Commissioners as recommended by the Broward Cultural Council as well as the following Funds from the Community Foundation of Broward: Fonda and H. Wayne Huizenga, Jr Family Trust Fund, Gary J. Scotto Fund and Mary and Alex Mackenzie Community Impact Fund. Additional funding is provided in part by the Broward County Board of County Commissioners as recommended by the Broward Cultural Council and Greater Fort Lauderdale Convention & Visitors Bureau.

    Open to all ages, including service and support animals and well-behaved pets.
