Music

Part of Hancher's 52nd Season

Two luminous musicians shine their collective light on an achingly haunting exploration of grief.

The champion of chamber orchestras and a virtuosic violinist come together for a program of Baroque and Classical masterworks.

Marc Ribot will perform his score for Yakov Protazanov’s pioneering sci-fi film “Aelita: Queen of Mars” as part of the ReFocus Film Festival.

Sean Mason composes and performs highly melodic, wholly infectious music. Branford Marsalis, a jazz legend, has praised Sean’s musicality. His debut record, “The Southern Suite,” is a roadmap to his music—a map that should lead you to his Club Hancher performances.

Gaby Moreno’s approach to Latin Americana has won her an avid audience—and has opened doors for other voices that don’t necessarily sound like the mainstream. Moreno demonstrates just how astonishing those voices can be.

Perhaps best known as a trumpeter, Chief Xian aTunde Adjuah is a multi-instrumentalist, composer, and producer who has not only rethought the foundations of music, but also the techniques for making that music.

Cécile McLorin Salvant is always exploring and charting new paths. A vocalist of startling gifts, she seems to unveil some new facet of her artistry with each project and collaboration.

Nduduzo Makhathini creates ambitious music that is at once an act of cultural reclamation and a revelatory blending of technique and creativity. A leading light of South African jazz infuses the sounds of his culture with the influence of McCoy Tyner.

In this Club Hancher performance, Quijada and Robinson will play an acoustic concert that includes songs from a hip-hop remix highlighting Black and Brown unity and telling the story of those who used the Underground Railroad to escape to Mexico rather than the northern United States.
