Manuel Barrueco
Wednesday, March 10

A major artist with remarkable musicianship and a world of technique, simply and consistently awesome.
—Los Angeles Times

A virtuoso distinguished by his stylistic breadth and passion, Manuel Barrueco has gained much attention for his electrifying recitals and a recent flurry of CD releases: three Bach sonatas, a collaboration with tenor Plácido Domingo, Latin-American music with soprano Barbara Hendricks including works by Villa-Lobos and Piazzolla, and songs by John Lennon and Paul McCartney. For this recital, he’ll play music by Piazzolla, J.S. Bach, deVisee, Sor and others.

Oumou Sangare & Her Band
World Music Superstars from Mali

Thursday, April 8

An indescribably beautiful voice, a super-tight band and an amazing stage show. —Time Out New York

An Afro-pop sensation, Oumou Sangare performs Wassoulou music from southern Mali bringing a bit of Africa to local audiences. Sangare’s funky sound is made up of her gorgeous, dusky vocals and instruments ancient and electric: bass and guitar mingle with African harp and drums. Her back-up singers complete the scene musically and theatrically.

General public: $14/$17/$20
