Featured artist: Anat Cohen, clarinet Maria Schneider, conductor & Scott Flavin, emcee Shelly Berg, piano & Mark Nuccio, clarinet Steve Guerra, composer Experience the magic of Brazilian music as Anat Cohen, the charismatic and prolific Grammy-nominated clarinetist and saxophonist, joins forces with The Henry Mancini Institute Orchestra, conducted by the renowned NEA Jazz Master, Maria Schneider. The New York Times writes, “Ms. Cohen on the clarinet was a revelation. Using the clarinet’s upper register, she could evoke infectious joy. In the lower register, her playing could conjure a deep, soulful melancholy. On up-tempo numbers, her improvisations weren’t just bebop fast; they had a clarity and deep intelligence that is really quite rare. She made it look effortless, even as she was playing the most technically difficult of all the reed instruments... she took my breath away.” Joining her on stage are pianist and Frost School of Music Dean Shelly Berg and clarinetist Mark Nuccio.
