Music

Brentano String Quartet

Critic Alex Ross calls the Brentano String Quartet “one of America’s finest, brainiest young quartets.” The program will include fugues by J.S. Bach, Benjamin Britten’s Quartet No. 3, and Johannes Brahms's Quartet in B-flat Major, Op. 67.

Las Cafeteras

Las Cafeteras brings together traditional Son Jarocho sounds, Afro-Mexican rhythms, the traditional dance zapateado, and inspiring lyrics—in English, Spanish, and Spanglish—to serve up a music both unique to East LA and universal in its appeal.

Inti-Illimani

Once banned from their homeland of Chile and now beloved at home and around the world, the members of Inti-Illimani write and perform songs that are both of a specific place and universally resonant.

Cantus

One of the world’s finest male vocal ensembles explores anthems—songs that conjure pride, identity, and unity. Anthem will feature songs of work, prayer, protest, ceremony, healing, and more from all around the globe.

Howard Fishman

In 1967, Bob Dylan made some underground recordings with The Band. Howard Fishman excavates that music—only some of which Dylan released—to share the source material and wide-ranging influences.

Terell Stafford Quintet

Trumpeter Terell Stafford loves lyricism and melody but also pursues a spirited and adventuresome edge in his expressive performances. Stafford and his top-flight quintet tip their hats to the deep traditions of jazz while charting their own course. Band members include: Tim Warfield (sax), Josh Richman (piano), Billy Williams (drums), and David Wong (bass).
