ABOUT RACHMANINOFF

Born in 1873, composer Sergei Rachmaninoff was not only one of the greatest pianists in history. While his Piano Concertos are considered amongst the most beloved by any composer, Rachmaninoff’s solo piano music features several hours of renowned works ranging from his two piano sonatas, 24 Preludes, and 17 Etudes Tableaux to his own transcriptions, variations on themes by other composers, and much much more.

RACHMANINOFF AT 150 most likely is the first time in Florida that all solo piano works by the great composer can be heard in concert – and by one of today’s most electrifying young pianists no less.

ABOUT ASIYA KOREPANOVA

Born to a musical family in Russia, Miss Korepanova made her orchestral debut at the age of nine with Mozart’s Concerto No. 8, including her own newly-composed cadenza. A musical prodigy, Korepanova’s early musical awards include the Russian Federation’s President Award for “Exceptional Achievement in the Arts,” and in 2012 won the Gold Medal at the Nina Wideman International Piano Competition.

Since immigrating to the U.S. in 2012, Korepanova has garnered national attention with performances at the Stern Auditorium at Carnegie Hall, the Bargemusic Series, the Phillips Collection, the Dame Myra Hess Memorial Series, the Miami International Piano Festival, and many others. She has been featured on CNN, NPR stations, WFMT, and WETA.

This season, in addition to being featured in the six recitals in Miami devoted to the complete solo piano works of Rachmaninoff, she will also celebrate the premiere of her latest transcription of Tchaikovsky’s epic Manfred Symphony, and also release scores of her compositions: the Poéme for alto saxophone and piano, and ‘Con Brio’ for two pianos, as well as solo piano transcriptions of works by Chopin, Schumann, Amy Beach, Faure, Mussorgsky, Franck, and Bach.

Continuing its commitment to welcoming local residents and visitors alike to engage in “Infinite Experiences for Everyone Under the Sun,” The LOOP reimagines its popular Friday Night Sound Waves series, launching the first of its new immersive music weekends with “All Shook Up – A Tribute to Elvis.” Coinciding with the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll’s 88th birthday, the two-day celebration will take place Friday, January 6, and Saturday, January 7, 2023.

The weekend celebration continues to pay respect to all things Presley, from the music that inspired him and the world to the movies that reinvented him, along with his passion for cars, favorite foods, and flamboyant fashions.

• 11:30 am – 1 p.m.: How Great Thou Art, Gospel Brunch: There are not many rock ‘n’ roll stars who also created incredible gospel music, but then again, there was only one Elvis Presley. Elvis shook the world with his infectious brand of rock ‘n’ roll, but he also took the world to church with his beautiful, soulful gospel music. Elvis loved traditional sacred music as much as he loved soul, country, and rock – maybe even more so.

Featuring the New Mount Olive Baptist Choir, led by Music Director Kenneth Smith (12 p.m.), with a special introductory performance by Pastor Paula Coleman (11:45 a.m.), the hour-long performance is open to the public and free to attend.

Those opting for the Gospel Brunch ticket ($29.50/adult; $21.50/child ) will receive reserved communal table seating and a choice of entrée from Tony Waffles, which includes Chicken & Waffles, Maple Bacon, Egg & Cheese Waffles, or an Elvis-inspired Peanut Butter and Banana Waffle topped with crumbled Bacon. Complimentary sweet tea, lemonade, and the King’s favorite dessert, lemon-iced pound cake, will also be served.

• 12:30 – 4:30 pm: If I Can Dream – Fit for a King Photo Ops: There is no doubt that when one thinks of Elvis, images of gyrating hips, leather jackets, slicked pompadour hair and Cadillacs come to mind.

On display to be enjoyed as a photo opportunity to round out what would have been the King of Rock and Roll’s 88th birthday will be a rare 1959 Cadillac Fleetwood. This relic of 1950s Americana sports its original “Brenton Blue” paint color, taken from the Brenton butterfly, all original interior, audacious trim and chrome and those iconic fins and rocket taillights.

Elvis Presley also loved Hawaii. From his first visit in November 1957 to his final vacation in March of 1977, he would visit the Islands of Hawaii on many occasions. Not only did he make three movies in Hawaii (Blue Hawaii, Girls! Girls! Girls! and Paradise, Hawaiian Style), he also came to Hawaii for live performances, the one most well-known being the show on January 14, 1973, telecasted worldwide as Elvis, Aloha from Hawaii.

Attendees can step into Elvis’ shoes for a photo opportunity to recreate Elvis’ Lobby Card for the 1966 film Paradise – Hawaiian Style, complete with Hula Dancers, Hawaiian Shirt, Floral Lei, and Guitar.

• 1:30 – 3 p.m.: Shake, Rattle and Roll: As the best-selling artist of the 1950s, second in the 1960s, winner of three Grammy Awards, the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award at age 36, an inductee into multiple music halls of fame, and still recognized as the highest-selling artist to this day, the Elvis-legacy lives on and touching new generations.

Such is the case with 19-year-old Florida-native Matt Stone. With Matt’s uncanny resemblance, remarkable voice and fiery stage presence, he has earned the adoration of fans all across the country! Don’t miss the chance to dress up, dance and sing along as one of Graceland’s Top Ten Tribute Artists in the World, Matt Stone, takes guests through Elvis’s most beloved titles released in the 50s and 60s, from ‘That’s All Right Mama’ in 1956 to ‘Don’t Cry Daddy’ in 1969.

• 4:00 – 5:30 p.m.: Lawdy (Miss Clawdy): Before Elvis was dubbed the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll, he was hailed as the “The Hillbilly Cat” and “The King of Western Bop.” The LOOP’s afternoon jam session takes attendees on a musical journey of Elvis’s love for County, R&B, and Blues, led by “Lawdy” local and award-winning guitarist, singer and songwriter Joel DaSilva.

As homage to the music that inspired Elvis and that which he inspired, DaSilva will be joined on stage for a 90-minute performance alongside a stellar lineup of South Florida’s best representatives of the genre, including Joey Gilmore, Josh Rowand, Kevin Muncy, Tony Testa and more.

• 6:30 p.m. – 8 p.m.: Viva Las Vegas! The daylong celebration concludes with a dance-a-long screening of the film “Viva Las Vegas” featuring the star of the weekend himself, which film aficionados regard as one of the best, if not the best, films he ever made in his 13-year movie career.

Film Synopsis (Not Rated): All musically gifted race driver Lucky Jackson (Elvis Presley) wants in Las Vegas is to score enough money for a new car motor so he can win the Grand Prix. When he encounters sexy swimming instructor Rusty (Ann-Margret), he considers staying around longer. After Lucky loses his winnings in the hotel pool, he’s forced to remain in Vegas long enough to win back his dough – but now he also wants to win Rusty’s heart. Unfortunately, so does his slick racing enemy, Elmo (Cesare Danova).

They offer inspiration and the message of music’s nurturing powers for people with and without disabilities. This band is about a fundamental need of people just wanting to belong, to be accepted. Participating in the band is their way of demonstrating to both themselves and their critics that they have something to contribute to society: skills, talent and commitment. The band proves to be an important life lesson of hope and courage.

South Florida Symphony Orchestra Presents Shostakovich, Gottsch and Great Opera Arias 1/24/23

Cost: Tickets start at just $25 for the concert at New World Center

South Florida Symphony Orchestra’s (SFSO) 25th anniversary season continues to shine with Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 9, the world premiere of Ocklawaha by composer-in-residence John Gottsch, and a selection of great opera arias from Puccini, Verdi, and Lara. Led by Music Director Sebrina María Alfonso with guest soloists Catalina Cuervo, soprano, and Adam Diegel, tenor, the Masterworks program is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. on January 24 at New World Center in Miami Beach.

Originally intended to be to a grandiose piece that would glorify Stalin’s regime and Russian victory over the Nazis in 1945, Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 9 rendered a more complex, thoughtful and sometimes carefree composition. The composer was known for his resistance to the Soviet rule and his subversion tactics often promising to compose the piece the regime wanted while actually giving it something else.

SFSO’s composer-in-residence John Gottsch will present the world premiere of Ocklawaha. The Ocklawaha is a river originating in the lakes of central Florida and flowing north through some of the most mysterious, wild, and breathtakingly beautiful parts of the state. As a young boy, the composer traveled the Ocklawaha with his father, learning the history of the river and surrounding lakes, that brought to life on passing shores, the escaped slaves, Seminole warriors, and a Civil War battle. The musical narrative brings to life the storied struggles of Florida’s Native American ancestors through thoughtfully arranged orchestral movements.

John D. Gottsch was born in New Orleans, Louisiana and moved to Florida with his family, shortly thereafter. He spent his youth in the lake country of the Sunshine State traveling extensively and observing natural habitats. These explorations of Florida gave him an enduring love for its beauty and wildlife. He has been a lifelong composer and a number of his compositions reflect his deep appreciation of the outdoors. Last year, SFSO premiered the live performance of Gottsch’s original composition Princess Yurievskaya, and in 2020, SFSO premiered Sunset, both of which were featured on Gottsch’s 2020 debut album released by Naxos Records, the world’s leading classical music label. SFSO also performed Gottsch’s Bagatelles for Violin & Piano as part of its Summer With the Symphony Series in June 2021. His piano suite, Homosassa, premiered in Palm Beach in 2020. His piano quintet, Maryland Hunt, premiered at the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in Washington, DC in 2018 and has been performed in Philadelphia, Vienna, Rotterdam and Baltimore. Gottsch, a full-time doctor, now splits his time between Baltimore and Key West.

In addition, the program includes with a selection of great opera arias performed by Catalina Cuervo and Adam Diegel – Puccini’s “O Mio Babbino Caro,” “Un Bel Dì, Vedremo,” and “O Soave Fanciulla,” Agustín Lara’s “Granada,” Verdi’s “La Donna è Mobile” and “Brindisi” (The Drinking Song from La Traviata).

Tickets for the Masterworks II program start at $25 for New World Center. Tickets may be purchased by visiting southfloridasymphony.org/2022-23-season or by calling (954) 522-8445.

Award-winning guitarist José Luis presents a brand new work, “Introspective.” 2020 was a year marked by a pandemic, but it also exposed a society in decline and a spiritually impoverished world that cries for change yet is not quite sure of what it wants. It has been a long time since humankind has experienced such a high degree of fragility. It seems that we have lost our North, that we are not capable of taking the reins of this absurd and sordid chaos. Introspective is born amid this absurd and surreal moment. It is born under a necessity provoked by solitude and distance and from a completely personal vision of this “new reality”, of packed trains and of empty theatre, of face masks and hand sanitizer, and confinements.

Tributes Starring Joe Posa as Joan Rivers and Featuring Seth Sikes 1/14/23

1480 SW 9th Avenue,
Fort Lauderdale, Florida, 33315
Website
Cost: $35; $65 VIP ticket includes premium seating and a meet and greet photo opportunity with both performers

The stars will align when Joe Posa and Seth Sikes unite to perform for one night only in “TRIBUTES,” a loving homage to female leading legends, on Saturday, January 14, at 8 p.m., at the Sunshine Cathedral Center for the Performing Arts (1480 SW 9th Avenue). Tickets for this dynamic duo show are on sale, now.

This new tribute show, produced by the leading men, themselves, will bring two worlds of performance art together: female impersonation and live song. Joe Posa will impersonate Joan Rivers, Barbra Streisand and Liza Minnelli while Seth Sikes will delight audiences with his soulful voice singing of nostalgic tunes made famous by Judy Garland, Bernadette Peters and others.

Joe Posa has made a name for himself in show business, starting his career in musical theater as a performer/dancer featured in the international touring company of West Side Story plus other musicals including Anything Goes, Grease, A Chorus Line and South Pacific. In 1993 (soon to be celebrating his 30th anniversary), he then found his wings as a sought-after female celebrity impersonator. Having performed alongside Ms. Rivers on two separate occasions, Posa was lovingly called by Ms. Rivers, her “favorite Joan Rivers Impersonator.” As a cast member in several productions of “An Evening at La Cage,” he has performed as Barbra Streisand, Liza Minnelli, Gloria Estefan and Michael Jackson. Posa was also Susan Lucci’s Erica Kane character double on ABC’s “All My Children,” as well as Tina Fey’s Liz Lemon character double on NBC’s “30 Rock.” Posa has produced and starred in multiple shows in Provincetown, Puerta Vallarta, Boston, Palm Springs, New York City, London and other cities for nearly 20 years. His productions include, “Guys as Dolls,” “An Evening at the Birdcage,” “Joe Posa Poses,” and “The Bitch is Back!” Also, he has performed at numerous red carpet corporate functions, charity fundraisers and elegant private events.

Seth Sikes is one of New York’s most popular young nightclub performers. Hailed as “the best male singer of his generation” by Theatre Scene, Sikes has been selling out venues since his 2014 debut of “Seth Sikes Sings Judy Garland.” The show recounted how Garland inspired Sikes as a young boy in Paris, Texas, while he belted the legend’s greatest hits backed by a seven-piece band. The show won Broadway World’s Best Tribute Show award and prompted The New York Times to declare, “The performance was a hit with critics and audiences, alike.” The reviewers were equally enthusiastic toward his follow-up show, “Seth Sikes Sings Liza Minnelli.” The New York Post relayed, “It was a heartfelt concert. Sikes has a heap of fans, and his audiences are always tightly packed and brimming with enthusiasm for his booming, jazzy renditions of their favorite songs.” When the Covid pandemic prevented Sikes from performing for live audiences, he created a series of online music video parodies that went viral, viewed by hundreds of thousands. His most recent video, “Ring Them Bells,” was selected to close the globally broadcast Liza Minnelli 75th birthday tribute. Sikes also works in the theatre behind the scenes. He was associate director for “The Band’s Visit” and “The Nance” on Broadway. He directed the original musical “Bunked!” which won Outstanding Musical at the New York International Fringe Festival in 2010, as well as “The 7th Annual Broadway Beauty Pageant.

Tickets for “TRIBUTES” start at $35 with a $65 VIP ticket including premium seating and a meet and greet photo opportunity with both performers. To purchase tickets, visit bit.ly/TributesbyPosaandSikes.

Cost: $20 – $75

A beloved holiday musical tradition is returning to South Florida Symphony Orchestra (SFSO)! Sebrina María Alfonso will conduct Handel’s glorious holiday favorite, Messiah, the seasonal masterpiece, featuring soloists Neil Nelson, bass baritone; Gerardo Ortega, tenor; Brittany Graham, soprano; Stephanie Newman, mezzo-soprano and the South Florida Symphony Chorus on December 4, at 4 p.m., at Barry University in Miami.

Smithsonian magazine writes, “A musical rite of the holiday season, the Baroque-era oratorio still awes listeners 250 years after the composer’s death.” Handel’s popular work, which draws from the Christian Lent and Easter stories, encompasses a musical narrative brilliance that transcends belief systems.”

To elevate the holiday spirit, the evening opens with glorious sounds of the season, including Schubert’s Ave Maria; Pietro Yon’s Italian Christmas carol, “Gesù Bambino;” Mendelssohn’s “Hark! The Herald Angels Sing,” and more followed by Part I of Handel’s Messiah. The performance culminates with the iconic “Hallelujah” chorus as sung by the South Florida Symphony Chorus, made-up of seasoned chorale singers and community talent. The Chorus is conducted by Dr. Giselle Elgarresta Rios. Rios and Maestra Alfonso collaborated to create the South Florida Symphony Chorus in 2019, which made its debut at the Beethoven 250th celebration in February of 2020.

The esteemed South Florida Symphony, celebrating its 25th anniversary of artistic excellence, launched its 2022/23 season on November 9 at The Parker in Fort Lauderdale and on November 10 New World Center in Miami Beach. This outstanding season will feature classical masterworks including Shostakovich’s final “War Symphony,” No. 9, Brahms’s doubly demanding Concerto for Violin and Cello and an all-Dvořák program with audience favorite – and performer during the Symphony’s inaugural concert – Zuill Bailey. Additionally, honoring its commitment to presenting new works, SFSO will present its third world premiere by composer-in-residence John Gottsch: the Florida-inspired Ocklawaha. The South Florida Symphony Chorus will expand its repertoire, once again, performing one of the greatest large chorale works of its day, Bruckner’s majestic Te Deum.

Tickets start at $20 for the December 4 performance at Barry University’s Shepard & Ruth K. Broad Performing Arts Center (11300 NE 2nd Ave in Miami Shores) and can be ordered online at https://southfloridasymphony.org/handels-messiah or via phone at (954) 522-8445.

Tchaikovsky, Elgar and Barber Masterworks will launch South Florida Symphony Orchestra’s (SFSO) celebratory 25th anniversary 2022/23 season of artistic excellence at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, November 9, at The Parker in Fort Lauderdale. Led by Music Director Sebrina María Alfonso, SFSO will perform Tchaikovsky’s beloved Violin Concerto in D major, Op. 35, with featured soloist Askar Salimdjanov; Elgar’s series of short musical portraits, Enigma, Variations on an Original Theme, Op. 36; and Barber’s orchestral work in one movement, First Essay for Orchestra, Op. 12.

Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto in D major, one of the most beloved violin concertos in history, is a romantic masterpiece. Radiating Russian spirit, Tchaikovsky’s only violin concerto will be performed by Askar Salimdjanov.

Salimdjanov is a multiple winner of the Lyric Chamber Music Competition, which led him to his New York debut recital in May 2019 and in May 2020 at the Lyric Chamber Series at the Kosciusko Foundation in New York. In November 2020, he had his Orchestra Miami debut performing Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto. In 2020 Mr. Salimdjanov won the first NSAL Piano and Strings Duo Competition and in 2019, he won Fourth place in the John Oliveira String Competition. Salimdjanov has performed as soloist with South Florida Symphony (during the recent Summer with the Symphony Chamber Music Series), Uzbekistan National Symphony Orchestra, State Conservatory Orchestra of Uzbekistan, Lynn Philharmonia and Orchestra Miami under the batons of Kuvanch Usmanov, Vladimir Neymer, Kamoliddin Urinbaev, Alan Paris, Guillermo Figueroa and Elaine Rinaldi. He performed as a soloist and as a chamber musician in Russia, Ukraine, Italy, Sweden, Singapore, Israel, and the United States.

In 2022, Salimdjanov was selected as one of seven violinists to participate at Geneva International String Academy in Switzerland. Salimdjanov was a concertmaster of Yong Siew Toh Conservatory orchestra and Lynn University orchestra as well as a substitute violinist at Naples Philharmonic Orchestra. He received his Bachelor of Music degree from the Yong Siew Toh Conservatory of Music in Singapore where he studied with distinguished violinist Qian Zhou. Mr. Salimdjanov completed his professional performance certificate at Lynn University with renowned violinist Elmar Oliveira. Some of Salimdjanov’s students are prize winners of international competitions for young musicians.

Completed in the first half of 1938, Samuel Barber’s First Essay for Orchestra, Op. 12, is an orchestral work in one movement. Arturo Toscanini with the NBC Symphony Orchestra first performed it on November 5, 1938 in New York in a radio broadcast concert . The essay is now known as the First Essay for Orchestra after Barber wrote his Second Essay for Orchestra in 1942. He also wrote a Third Essay in 1978.

Edward Elgar’s Enigma, Variations on an Original Theme, Op. 36, is one of his best-known works that catapulted him to fame. Premiering in London in 1899, the work consists of 14 short musical portraits of several of the composer’s friends and family, and is considered to be one of the greatest compositions of the 19th century.

Upcoming SFSO concerts include Handel’s Messiah on December 3 and 4; Shostakovich, a Gottsch Ocklawaha World Premiere and Great Opera Arias on January 24, 25 and 28; Brahms, Sibelius and Berlioz on February 15 and 18, an all Dvořák program on March 22, 23 and 25 and season closer Rachmaninoff and Bruckner on April 26.

In honor of this milestone year and its new Miami home at the Michael Tilson Thomas Performance Hall at the New World Center (500 17th Street in Miami Beach), SFSO is celebrating with a special “Symphony Night OUT” at both Fort Lauderdale and Miami performances featuring a pre-concert Champagne reception (6:30 p.m. – Fort Lauderdale; 6 p.m. – Miami) and a 20% ticket discount (code: NIGHTOUT).

Arturo Toscanini with the NBC Symphony Orchestra first performed it on November 5, 1938 in New York in a radio broadcast concert . The essay is now known as the First Essay for Orchestra after Barber wrote his Second Essay for Orchestra in 1942. He also wrote a Third Essay in 1978.

Edward Elgar’s Enigma, Variations on an Original Theme, Op. 36, is one of his best-known works that catapulted him to fame. Premiering in London in 1899, the work consists of 14 short musical portraits of several of the composer’s friends and family, and is considered to be one of the greatest compositions of the 19th century.

Orchestra Miami celebrates the legacy of Mana-Zucca, a legend in Miami’s music circles and a pioneering composer at the Miami Woman’s Club. Prior to moving to Miami, Mana-Zucca was a celebrated concert pianist and singer who performed leading roles in musical comedies. After her move to Miami, she became a prolific composer, composing over 400 works, and holding weekly musicales in her home “Mazica Hall”. She was also the teacher of concert pianist and pioneer Ruth Greenfield, whom we will honor at the concert.

The Miami Woman’s Club was founded in 1900 as the “Married Ladies’ Afternoon Club” just four years after Miami was incorporated. Their current newly renovated home was designed in 1925 by August Geiger, one of the most prominent American architects in South Florida at the time, and had its grand opening in 1926 as the Flagler Memorial Library and Women’s Club. The organization provided library services for the city and worked toward the establishment of a municipal library system. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.

The program includes many under-performed gems, including the Tocccata for Vioin & Piano, Sonata for Cello & Piano, Op. 223, Hakinoh for Violin & Piano, Op. 186, Ballade et Caprice for Cello & Piano, Op. 28, Fisherman’s Wharf for Violin & Piano, Op 228, Trio for Violin, Cello & Piano, Op.40, Rachem for Voice & Piano and her most famous composition, I Love Life, which was widely recorded.

The performers include Orchestra Miami principal Cellist Aaron Merritt, Principal 2nd Violinist Karen Lord-Powell, baritone Philip Kalmanovitch, and Orchestra Miami’s Artistic Director Elaine Rinaldi on the piano. Tickets are priced at just $30 General Admission for Adults, $25 for Seniors over 65 and $5 for Students with ID. The Miami Woman’s Club has valet parking only available for $20; metered street parking may be found along Bayshore Drive, or park in the Omni Garage on NE 15 Street.

Cost: Free

In this musical performance, IlluminArts will explore the layers of meaning beneath, within and beyond the new works Maria Martinez-Cañas created for her exhibition, Absence Revealed at The Bass Museum. The works comprising Absence Revealed came about through two recent personal events in Martinez-Cañas’ life: the loss of her mother and the chance finding of her Miami home’s original wallpaper while renovating. The works highlight physical and emotional processes of excavation: the act of revealing and uncovering, as well as the surfacing of pain, loss and absence. Martinez-Cañas created these works by collaging items from her personal archive of found objects, including materials that the artist’s mother had taken from Cuba during her exile in 1960, actively engaging with the ideas of memory and loss. The musical program to be performed twice during the evening of October 20th for the Miami Beach Culture Crawl will include 10 new improvisations by internationally renowned cellist, Sæunn Thorsteinsdóttir, as well as songs by Tania Léon, Gilda Lyons, Hector Campos Parsi, Joseph Schwantner, Leo Brouwer, Heitor Villa-Lobos and more.

As a precursor to this event, world-renowned cellist Saeunn Thorsteinsdóttir will lead a free, community improvisation workshop on Monday, October 17 at 6:30 PM. This special workshop is open to all and no previous musical experience is necessary to participate.

With a “breathtaking conflation of grace and grit” (Cleveland Classical), violinist Jennifer Frautschi makes her anticipated NWS debut. Many listeners believe Ralph Vaughan Williams’ The Lark Ascending is among the most beautiful pieces of music ever written.

Low brass claim the spotlight in Kevin Day’s sizzling Ignition.

Based in Miami, Los Wizzards is an embodiment of the city at her finest: a melting pot that blends a flavorful array of cultures while honoring its American home. The seven colorful and culturally diverse musicians came together through a series of open mic nights in 2016. Los Wizzards’ magic lies in their way of inviting their audience into the conversation with elements of funk, rock, pop, jazz, reggae, hip-hop and salsa.

Through festive yet honest lyrical storytelling and an unusually sophisticated approach to popular genres, their anthems cast a spell that compels listeners to join the dance. Their power has its roots in the team’s devotion to artistic discipline, constant experimentation, and a firm refusal to restrict their sound by defining it with one genre.

In 2020, that unique identity led them to win the honor of representing Miami on the city’s biggest stage as the Miami Heat’s official house band. Los Wizzards’ music is a celebration of life, Miami and the powerful magic that results from a playful and culturally diverse collaboration.

Live on the Plaza is a series of outdoor concerts on our Parker and Vann Thomson Plaza for the Arts.

Please note: Seating for this performance is purchased by the table.
Ticket prices are per person. Locations are assigned in the order of purchase in parties of up to four guests based on reservation type.

South Florida jazz pianist Brandon Goldberg, now 16 years old, has been playing piano and wowing audiences since he was 3. With “ample dexterity and wise-beyond-his-years sound” (JAZZIZ), Goldberg found his passion for jazz by listening to his favorite artists, including Herbie Hancock, Bill Evans, Oscar Peterson, Charlie Parker, Miles Davis and John Coltrane.

He has performed at the Newport, Twin Cities, Litchfield and Monterey jazz festivals and has graced the stages of New York’s most notable jazz clubs, including Dizzy’s Club, Birdland Theater, Mezzrow and The Blue Note. Most recently, Goldberg toured with the NYO Jazz Orchestra, playing at Carnegie Hall and the Kennedy Center.

Goldberg’s 2021 album, In Good Time, received four stars from DownBeat magazine and was named one of the top albums of the year. It features the late, great Ralph Peterson on drums along with Josh Evans, Stacy Dillard and Luques Curtis. Goldberg’s 2019 debut album, LET’S PLAY!, also received four stars from DownBeat, which placed it among the year’s best albums. LET’S PLAY! also reached the top seven on the Jazz Week album charts.

Goldberg is the youngest recipient of the ASCAP 2022 Herb Alpert Young Jazz Composer Award. He is a three-time winner of the DownBeat Student Music Awards in the jazz soloist and original composition categories. This is a performance not to be missed!
