When Ballaké Sissoko & Vincent Segal released their first collaborative album, Chamber Music in 2011, they caught the music world by surprise. Everything about this duo was unexpected: the Malian master of the traditional harp, or kora; the French cellist with the unlikely background in trip-hop; and the elegant, soulful music they made together. After years of touring together Sissoko and Segal have created their own hybrid tradition, one that draws on the ancient well of West African troubadour songs, the rich heritage of Baroque music, and an elusive but somehow clearly modern sensibility.

Axis of Love is a three-part concert series presented by The Rhythm Foundation with major support from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation. Tickets are $20 for individual concerts in advance, $50 for a three-concert series.

Both nights feature great food and crafts vendors, special activities and more.

Ask a Yoruba; aché is the primordial, mystical energy that permeates everything in the universe – divine grace, vitality, wisdom and the inherited experience of the life force. A group of Miami music veterans have tapped into the source for an exciting new project that fuses rhythms of the orishas with house music – A.C.H.É, The AfroCuban House Experiment featuring OSCAR G (Murk Records, Funky Green Dogs) OBA Frank Lords and Katiahshé.

Sinkane is a young Sudanese-Brooklynite serves as musical director for the Atomic Bomb! super group, which includes David Byrne, Damon Albarn, members of Hot Chip, LCD Sound System, Amadou & Mariam and so many others. Here he brings his funk-soul-afropop group for a live set, in support of their new release Life and Livin’ It.

Vieux Farka Toure is often referred to as “The Hendrix of the Sahara.” He is the son of legendary Malian guitar player Ali Farka Touré, and he continues to explore the fertile musical links between Malian music and American blues. His collaborations include legends of African music and far beyond, including Dave Matthews, Idan Rachel, Julia Easterlin.

TransAtlantic Festival is presented by Rhythm Foundation with support from John S. and James L. Knight Foundation. Additional support is received from Jack Daniels, Atlantic Broadband, City of Miami Beach Cultural Arts Council, and Miami Dade Department of Cultural Affairs. Day 2 of the Festival is presented in partnership with Community Arts and Culture’s Afro Roots World Music Festival.

RSVP / Register
Cost: Free

Students of the Guitars Over Guns program, in response to the tragic loss of Jakyri Fleurimar (age 15), are releasing a remake music video of Wiz Khalifa’s hit ‘See You Again’, March 2nd, 2017 at Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM).

Replacing verses of the original song with their own lyrics, GOGO students such as Xavier Gustave, cousin of Fleurimar, had the opportunity to express themselves in honor of Fleurimar’s memory and the many others lost to senseless gun violence. The song and video remake, which involved more than 80 Miami-Dade County Public School students, is a community call-to-action; a platform for those who can still speak up, want to be heard and want to make a difference.

This special screening, hosted by Local 10 Anchor Neki Mohan, will be the first public showing of this project, promising to engage the community in conversation surrounding solution-based actions. As part of the evening’s program, messages of encouragement will be delivered by Miami-Dade County Public Schools Superintendent Alberto Carvalho (via video), WSVN 7 Reporter Ann Keil and Commander Francisco Fernandez of the City of Miami Police Department.

Students spent months writing, rehearsing and editing this project, which was recorded at Noisematch Recording Studio in Wynwood, and filmed at North Miami Middle School with a special appearance by members of the North Miami Police Department.

Come out and show your support!

Batuke Samba Funk has quickly become one of South Florida’s favorite party bands in the last few years. The group mixes rhythms from Brazilian samba and with classic 70s American funk. The goal of Batuke is to “brazilianize” American sounds, and “Americanize” Brazilian sounds in a perfectly balanced fusion. The band is formed by several of Miami’s top Brazilian musicians including bassist and composer Diogo Brown, guitarist Cezar Santana and singer Mari Mac. They have performed with top Brazilian artists like Vanessa da Mata, and also James Brown’s legendary sax player Pee Wee Ellis. Their irresistible groove-fueled sound is influenced by top Brazilian and US funk and artists, including Jorge Ben Jor, Earth, Wind & Fire, Tim Maia and Seu Jorge, among others.

Monthly Dance Band Night at the North Beach Bandshell is produced by The Rhythm Foundation with support from the National Endowment for the Arts and the City of Miami Beach.

Over the past 20 years, Harris has steadily developed his reputation as one of the finest vocalists of his era. Brooklyn-born and Harlem-based, he has forged his sterling credentials through his ten previous albums, covering a broad range of contexts, all netted together within the rich territory of the jazz tradition. In addition to his recordings, he has performed on a worldwide stage that has taken him to prestigious international festivals and halls in Europe, the Middle East and Asia, as well as the 2012 Olympics in London. At home, he has toured nationally at festivals and top venues, including New York’s Lincoln Center and D.C.’s Kennedy Center. He has received numerous awards, including the New York Nightlife Award for “Outstanding Jazz Vocalist” (which he won three times), the Backstage Bistro Award for “Ongoing Achievement in Jazz,” the Harlem Speaks “Jazz Museum of Harlem Award,” and the DownBeat Critic’s Poll Award for “Rising Star Vocalist.”

The afternoon will open with a performance by Dr Ed Calle’s student jazz ensemble, and there will be a farmer’s market as well hosted by The Market Company.

Special thanks to our presenting sponsor the LeRoy Schecter Foundation.

in a career farewell concert with long-term collaborator, pianist Makoto Ozone. The performance will take place on Saturday, March 4, 2017 at 8:00 p.m. in the Rose

& Alfred Miniaci Performing Arts Center on the Nova Southeastern University campus, 3100 Ray Ferrero Jr Blvd, Davie 33314. Tickets are $40 ($10 for students under

age 25 with valid I.D.) and can be purchased from Ticketmaster either online via http://www.southfloridajazz.org or by calling 954-462-0222.

Gary Burton is the most important vibraphonist of the modern era. Largely self-taught, he is a major innovator on his instrument because of his conception and

mastery of an extraordinary and four-mallet technique that continues to elude most practitioners. His accomplishments resulted in seven Grammy Awards. He has

been voted Best Vibraphonist innumerably in the important trade polls. In 2016, he was awarded a richly-deserved Fellowship from the National Endowment for the

Arts as a Jazz Master, an honor given only to luminaries who have advanced the art form.

Makoto Ozone (o-zo-nee) was born into a musical family in Kobe, Japan and began to play organ at age two. At twelve, inspired by Oscar Peterson, he switched to

piano. While classically trained, he strove to become a jazz pianist and met Gary Burton when he came to Berklee School of Music in Boston to study in 1980. He

played a classical solo concert in Carnegie Hall in 1983, the same year that he joined Gary’s jazz band. He stayed in the US until 1989, returning to Japan where he

continued performing works from the classical repertoire with major orchestras to rave reviews – a very rare acceptance of a jazz musician.

In 2013, in commemoration of the 30th anniversary of their debut together, Makoto toured with Gary in Japan for a month. They have now collaborated memorably

for over 33 years. This performance for South Florida JAZZ represents the conclusion, as Gary Burton retires from the profession with a brief tour with his friend Makoto.

February 19 from 3 to 6 pm: Global Arts Project, Inc. and the Collins Park Neighborhood Association open their 2017 season with a celebration of Mardi Gras by Dr. Michael White’s New Orleans Quartet. This is the first of five FREE Artscape concerts for the 2017 season in Collins Park, 2100 Collins Ave., Miami Beach.

Dr. Michael White has been instrumental in keeping alive the New Orleans jazz tradition of his ancestors, some of whom were among the earliest jazz musicians. A professor of Spanish and African American Music at Xavier University in New Orleans, White has become well known on the jazz scene. He performs, writes and lectures on jazz, and is among a very few current clarinetists to develop an original authentic interpretation of the exciting New Orleans style.

He has been widely acknowledged as an expert in the field of traditional New Orleans jazz, and currently serves as a commissioner of the New Orleans Jazz National Historical Park. He has coordinated, performed in and hosted numerous jazz programs for Jazz at Lincoln Center, several universities and many other organizations. In addition to touring worldwide with his own Original Liberty Jazz Band and other groups at major concert halls and festivals, he has appeared in numerous documentaries, films and interviews. White has performed and/or recorded with noted musicians such as Wynton Marsalis, Lionel Hampton and Marcus Roberts. He has played on numerous highly acclaimed recordings, including his own critically acclaimed Crescent City Serenade and New Years at the Village Vanguard.

Dr. White has been given numerous awards and recognition for his contributions, including the rank of Chevalier of Arts and Letters by the French Government in 1987 and a National Heritage Fellowship Award by the National Endowment of the Arts in 2008.

The afternoon will open with a performance by Dr Ed Calle’s student jazz ensemble, and there will be a farmer’s market as well hosted by The Market Company. Special thanks to our presenting sponsor, the LeRoy Schecter Foundation.

Cost: $45-$125

The 3-time Grammy Award-winning Branford Marsalis Quartet will be joined by guest-vocalist and Grammy Award-winner Kurt Elling in a singular collaboration of musical forces. The tight-knit working band featuring Marsalis on saxophones, Joey Calderazzo on piano, Eric Revis on bass, and Justin Faulkner on drums rarely invites other musicians into the folds of their nearly telepathically cohesive unit, and Elling’s deep jazz vocabulary, technical versatility, and outstanding intonation will enable the band to perform a variety of material in new ways. Opening for the Quartet will be jazz vocalist, composer and Miami native, Carmen Lundy. Hailed by The Evening Standard as “a genuine jazz singer”.

Cost: 30-40-45

Arts Garage presents Maria Rivas, Saturday February 4 at 8 PM. Known as one of the most versatile voices in Latin America and now North America, Maria Rivas skillfully combines American and Latin Jazz rhythms with lively yet sentimental music from around the world. She interprets her music in English, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese, and performs her own blend of traditional standards as well as music and lyrics she has composed herself.

Maria’s unique sound is an intoxicating combination of classic American jazz and Latin music, with just the right splash of Brazilian accents, together with her signature mixture of indigenous, Caribbean, European, and African strains. From slow and sensuous, to very lively with a strong beat, her audiences love alternately to dance to her music, or sit and listen while being both moved and energized. A significant number of her audience members have described her performances as “magical”–their word.

“I consider Maria Rivas to be one of the finest singers on the world stage today, truly a tremendous talent. .. Her music is varied, original, and unique.”
Oscar de Leon, Latin Grammy Award winner.

Arts Garage is at 94 NE 2nd Ave in Delray Beach. Tickets are $30-40-45 at artsgarage.org or (561) 450-6357. Music courtesy of KCC Productions.

It’s time to bring a little culture to Downtown Miami! CULTRA is a roving Open Mic held in a Downtown Miami park every third-Thursday from January to May. Produced in collaboration with Emerge Miami, CULTRA is an opportunity for local performers in all disciplines to showcase their skills for fellow Miamians in some of the most scenic public spaces this town has to offer.

We are psyched to have Words And Wine Open Mic as co-producers for the second edition! Words and Wine have been producing a weekly, Wednesday-night open mic for over six years. Expect a diverse lineup and a collection of local vendors for CULTRA’s debut in Museum Park! We’ll have the usual 90 minutes of open mic time from 7:30 – 9pm followed by a feature set from Gypsy Latin jammers TAMBOKA.

Interested in performing? Pre-register with our online form! It’s simple and you’ll have a good chance of getting a spot. Electricity is limited at Museum Park. Musicians should plan to play acoustic or rely on very little amplification. Day-of signup will close at 8pm.

Interested in vending? Send us an email at info@buskerfestmiami.com.

CULTRA is made possible by a Public Space Challenge grant awarded by the Miami Foundation. Have an idea for improving Miami’s public spaces? You too can participate in the 2017 Public Space Challenge when applications open later this year.

Richards has performed with powerhouse artists including Faith Hill, Whitney Houston, The Bee Gees, Kelly Clarkson, Gloria Estefan, and Julio Iglesias, and has recorded with Barbra Streisand and Lenny Kravitz.

Get ready for musical fireworks on January 27th at the Arts Garage! Setting the bandstand alight that evening will be Grammy© Award winning trumpeter Brian Lynch and his group Spheres Of Influence. This dynamic quintet exhibits a blend of Latin fire and hard bop savior-faire that reflects its leader’s pedigree in both the jazz (Art Blakey, Horace Silver, Phil Woods) and Latin/world music (Eddie Palmieri) fields. Spheres Of Influence’s repertoire mixes modern jazz, Afro-Caribbean, and world music traditions in original works and arrangements by Lynch. Featured in this performance will be selections from Brian’s current Grammy-nominated album, “Madera Latino,” which pays tribute in Latin Jazz style to the legendary jazz trumpeter Woody Shaw.

“Lynch demonstrates that a dedicated, knowledgeable jazzman can play a diversity of styles with telling authenticity, and make the renditions extremely appealing to both musician and neophyte…Lynch is simply first – rate.”
– Zan Stewart, Downbeat

Featuring
Brian Lynch, trumpet
Kemuel Roig, piano
Rodner Padilla, bass
Hilario Bell, drums
Murphy Aucamp, percussion.

Showtime is 8 PM. Arts Garage is in Delray Beach, 94 NE 2nd Ave. Tickets are $30-40-45 at artsgarage.org or (561) 450-6357.

CULTRA brings a little more culture to downtown in the first-ever roving, outdoor open mic in Miami starting on Thursday, January 19, 2017.

A collaborative event series produced by Buskerfest Miami and Emerge Miami, CULTRA is an opportunity for local performers in all disciplines to showcase their skills for fellow Miamians in some of the most scenic public spaces Downtown Miami has to offer. On the third-Thursday of each month, January to May 2017, CULTRA will be held in one of the Downtown Miami parks in an effort to put the “public” back in public spaces and foster connections between attendees and our precious bayfront.

The event begins with ninety minutes of open stage time followed by a feature performance by a well-known local group. Each edition of CULTRA will be a collaboration with one of Miami’s other prominent, long-running open mics and include a guest host. Artistic Vibes, who produces one of Miami’s longest-running weekly open mics, will host the inaugural CULTRA event on Thursday, January 19, 2017 at Tina Hills Pavilion in Bayfront Park. Future dates of CULTRA are February 16, March 16, April 20 and May 18.

CULTRA is made possible by a Public Space Challenge grant awarded by the Miami Foundation.

Cost: Free

Lop-Off Sessions are a series of one-day, site-specific performances organized by Maitejosune Urrechaga & Tony Kapel of Pocket of Lollipops. The rock duo will present an all female line-up for the event, their first Lop-Off Session in Broward County.

The all female line up of local bands and musicians will record one song each on location at the Pink Noise: Flexing the Frequency exhibition in the galleries of Girls’ Club. These songs will then be made available as a compilation. Each band will have up to 30 minutes to knock out the song. The public is invited to watch on as an audience, respectful of the sound recordings taking place.

The objective of these Lop-Off Sessions is to show working musicians and the measures it takes capture a song.

Amid the backdrop of the exhibition Pink Noise: Flexing the Frequency, the audience is given a behind the scenes glimpse of the recording process – the set up, the tuning, the rehearsing, the capturing of a single musical work – a performance usually restricted to a trusted few.

“The audience will be watching what it takes for musicians to set-up, and capture a song. And also witness the stress, the anxiety or complete calm. Basically witnessing each musician’s approach to the task. So the acts are not really performing a show – just coming in and doing the track – some need the complete 30 minutes – some do 1st takes.”

– Tony Kapel

These sessions are then made available to audiences for sale on location and at partnering locations in a limited edition vinyl album set, as a CD set and digitally through Houndstooth Cottage., a recording/publishing house, and host of semi-private music and art events.

Featured Musicians:

Bows & Ties
Farina & Didi (Haochi)
Soety – Honey Henny Lime

Little Havana Social Club Returns with Miami Debut of Septeto Santiaguero

Miami Dade College’s (MDC) Koubek Center, su casa de cultura, re-ignites it’s starlit social dance series, the Little Havana Social Club, with the Miami debut of Septeto Santiaguero–direct from Cuba–at 8 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 14.

“What better way to bring back the series than with this historic band, indulging us with their rich musical tradition that has influenced so many in this community,” says Jessica Gloria, Manager of the Koubek Center. “Our goal is to make this series at the Koubek Center into a place of gathering for Latin music and dance enthusiasts. There is already a tremendous buzz in the neighborhood.”

The Latin Grammy- and Cubadisco- winning group Septeto Santiaguero developed their signature sound at the famous Casa de la Trova nightclub in Santiago de Cuba–the cradle of son and bolero. Their balance of tradition with experimentation has sparked collaborations with salsa stars like José Alberto “El Canario” and Rubén Blades. This show marks their Miami debut and their premiere U.S. tour.

The Little Havana Social Club is a series dedicated to celebrating Latin American heritage through music and dance. The concerts and dance parties promote community and engagement–from the dance floor to the domino tables, each evening featuring vibrant live bands, pre-concert dance lessons, and community vendors. Situated in the lush gardens of the historic Koubek Center mansion, the performances are preceded by a complimentary dance lesson, and followed by an afterparty with a DJ. Specialty food and cocktails are available for purchase.

Coming events in the series include an Argentine Valentine’s Milonga with Argot Tango Quintet on February 18; Puerto Rican bomba and plena by Plena Es on March 25; and Afro-Colombian Rhythms from Herencia de Timbiqui on April 22.

About Septeto Santiaguero
Septeto Santiaguero was founded in 1995, as a number of young musicians from other septets, such as Sones de Oriente or Septeto Luz, joined the famous Melodías de Ayer and Fernando Dewar, a tres player, took over the leadership. Seeking to return to their roots, they decided to give up the mambos and stick to the discipline of the traditional septet – guitar, tres, bongo, clave, maracas, acoustic bass and trumpet–with the addition of the drum, which they retained in honor of Arsenio Rodríguez. In the Santiago de Cuba style, the two singers maintain the first and second harmony with equal emphasis.

Despite the fact that the group is eight in number, they retained the name Septeto Santiaguero because of the way they perform the son, the bolero, the guaracha, the guajira, and the guaguancó, which are completely rooted in the septeto sound. Together they have a created a group which preserves and pays homage to one of Cuba’s most important musical forms, with a vitality demonstrating that the septeto tradition is still fresh and alive in Santiago de Cuba today.

About The Koubek Center
The Koubek Center–su casa de cultura– is an intellectual, cultural, and community hub in the heart of Little Havana. A historic landmark in South Florida, the revitalized mansion remains true to its pioneering heritage–celebrating its multicultural community with workshops, art exhibitions, theater performances, literary readings, concerts and more. In addition to the mansion, the iconic space includes glorious gardens, the Koubek theater, the ArtSpace gallery, classrooms, and mini performance spaces.

South Florida JAZZ presents the renowned New York Standards Quartet on Saturday, January 7, 2017 at 7:45 PM at the Rose & Alfred Miniaci Performing Arts Center on the Nova Southeastern University campus, 3100 Ray Ferrero Jr Blvd, Davie 33314. Tickets are $40 ($10 for students under age 25 with valid I.D.) and can be purchased from Ticketmaster either online via southfloridajazz.org or by calling 954-462-0222.

Four jazz master musicians formed the New York Standards Quartet (NYSQ) in 2006. The concept was a straightforward one: play jazz standards in a unique way. After performing a lot of original music they thought it would be liberating to play music based on conventional, standard jazz tunes that they had grown up playing. The band has been touring and developing together for more than ten years, and it definitely shows in the empathetic cohesion of the players. Audiences respond well to familiar music that is fresh sounding, accessible, and hard-swinging.

ARTISTIC PERSONNEL
Tim Armacost – tenor & soprano saxophones, flute
David Berkman – piano
Ugonna Okegwo – acoustic bass
Gene Jackson – drums

Funding for South Florida JAZZ is provided in part by grant from the Broward County Board of County Commissioners as recommended by the Broward Cultural Division

Masters of Sound Artists

6:00 Pm / Byrdipop, Miami, FL
I’m in a love/hate relationship with music. I’m pro hi-hat control and anti “loudness”.

7:30 Pm / True Vine, Miami, FL
True Vine is a Miami-based Christian DJ project inspired by the New Testament. He shares a divine vision of music that pulls from ancient Hebrew influences with an apocalyptic, biblical, and prophetic sound.

9:00 Pm / Helado Negro, Brooklyn, NY
Brooklyn-based producer-singer Roberto Lange has earned a wealth of recent acclaim for Private Energy, his fifth album as Helado Negro, including glowing reviews from Rolling Stone, Pitchfork, NPR and more. He began producing in the 2000s under the alias Epstein, collaborating with fellow electronic visionaries Prefuse 73, Julianna Barwick and Sinkane. Existentially occupying the ether between Ecuadorian and American identity, Lange solidifies his ethnic pride and his experimental legacy on Private Energy, tinkering with South American folk and electro-pop palettes. He’s also gotten ample attention (and sometimes befuddlement) from summer festival-goers thanks to his shaggy, glittering “Tinsel Mammals” dance crew. Designed with the help of his wife, artist Kristi Sword, his on-stage assistants look like Cousin Itt hitting the glitter. – Rolling Stone

10:30 Pm / Jacques Renault, Brooklyn, NY
Jacques is a DJ and producer from the Washington, D.C. area who lives and works in Brooklyn. He runs Let’s Play House, a raving house, disco, and techno party as well as an imprint of the same persuasion, with friend and partner, Nik Mercer. He owns three plants, a rotary mixer, thousands of records, and a similar number of T-shirts. Despite working within the confines of a different genre, Dischord Records is still probably his favorite label.

Saludarte Foundation And Mana Contemporary Present Viola Meets Mozart

Saludarte Foundation And Mana Contemporary Present Viola Meets Mozart
November 29th
MANA Wynwood
318 NW 23rd St
Miami, FL 33127

World-renowned artists Bill Viola and famous violinist Julian Rachlin come together in one of the year’s most significant performances of Miami Art Week. Viola Meets Mozart is the result of the collaboration of the SaludArte Foundation and MANA Contemporary.

Arguably the most important contemporary video artists of our time, Bill Viola’s work focuses on fundamental human experiences such as birth, death and the different aspects of consciousness. Viola Meets Mozart will feature Inverted Birth, a piece where Viola depicts five stages of awakening through a series of violent transformation and is accompanied by critically acclaimed violinist Julian Rachlin, who together with the PhilarMIA Orchestra will play movements I, II and III of Mozart’s 5th Violin Concerto. Spanish dancer Jesus Pastor will be performing an original choreography in this piece. All this will be performed under the artistic direction of Pablo Mielgo.

Viola Meets Mozart brings together a group of leading artists of different disciplines. Bill Viola is internationally recognized as one of today’s leading artists and is credited as instrumental in the establishment of video as a vital form of contemporary art, helping in the expansion of its scope in terms of technology, content and historical reach. Over the last 27 years, Julian Rachlin has been captivating audiences around the world and it is now considered one of the most exciting and respected musicians around the world. He has collaborated on many animations and with artists such as John Malkovich. Jesus Pastor, the founder of the “Human Dance Project,” is a classically trained dancer with a long-standing career that has taken him around the world. The artistic direction of the piece fell under Pablo Mielgo, who is not only the artistic and music director of the SaludArte Foundation but also the music director and co-artistic director of the Baleares Symphony Orchestra and the Medellin Philharmonic Academy.
“I am honored to be part of this amazing project and also thankful for the opportunity of working alongside Bill Viola, Jesus Pastor, the PhilarMia Orchestra and, of course, Pablo Mielgo. This is an exciting event taking place at an exciting time: the most important art fair in the hemisphere,” explained Julian Rachlin.

Viola Meets Mozart will be part of the MANA Wynwood’s space offerings during Miami Art Week. Additionally, in the space will be The Global South Visions and Revisions, Selections of the Brillembourg Capriles Collection, an exhibit curated by Adriana Herrar and Adolfo Wilson that proposes different revisions of the continent’s geometric abstraction. This exhibit is also a collaboration between the SaludArte Foundation and MANA Contemporary. PINTA Miami also returns to MANA Wynwood and celebrates its 10th year anniversary by expanding the project to include galleries from around the globe while maintaining a conceptual dialogue across all cultures, connecting Latin America to the rest of the world.

MANA Contemporary is one of the United States’ largest and most innovative contemporary art organizations. Mana offers exceptional services, spaces, and programming through its integrated architectural design for the greater creative community. Originally built in 1890, its rapidly expanding flagship location in Jersey City will eventually contain a footprint of more than two million square feet.

“To be part of one of the world’s most important art scenarios, as is Miami Art Week, is for us a milestone that allows us to grow and continue spreading the word about our mission of facilitating inclusive artistic processes that promote positive social change and integration. Much like Inverted Birth depicts the life cycle from birth to death, we want to be part of an individual’s transformation when exposed to art,” said Tania Capriles Brillembourg, Founder and Director of SaludArte Foundation.
On November 29th, MANA Wynwood will kick off Miami Art Week with Viola Meets Mozart, followed by the opening of PINTA Miami, in tandem with the opening of The Global South, Visions and Revisions: Selections from The Brillembourg Capriles Collection.

Cost: $40 ($10 students)

South Florida JAZZ presents the Benny Green Trio Saturday December 3 at 8 PM at the Miniaci Performing Arts Center, 3100 Ray Ferrero Jr Blvd in Davie.

Benny Green possesses the history of jazz at his fingertips. Combine mastery of keyboard technique with decades of real world experience playing with no one less than the most celebrated artists of the last half century, and it’s no wonder Green has been hailed as perhaps the most exciting hard-swinging, hard-bop pianist to ever emerge from Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers. Since emerging under the tutelage of Betty Carter, Art Blakey, Freddie Hubbard and Ray Brown in the early 1980s, Benny Green has become a highly regarded pianist and bandleader. His efforts to expand upon the language of the classical jazz canon have placed him not only among the best interpreters but also among the vanguard of musicians keeping jazz’s evolution going.

Tickets are $40 ($10 for students with ID 90 min before the show) at southfloridajazz.org or call 954-462-0222. Parking is free above the 1st floor.

Most BFYP performances are specifically held for school children in the tri-county area, although a few are open to the public. Last year, over 6,000 schoolkids were able to attend BFYP performances.
