Crossroads of Sound – Feb. 1 at 7:30 p.m.
“This unique concert transcends borders and genres, showcasing the shared makam tradition that binds Turkey, Azerbaijan and the Balkans. Experience the diversity of musical forms as we journey through classical compositions, spirited folk rhythms, Sufi chants, and daring improvisations. “Crossroads of Sound” is not merely a concert; it’s a celebration of artistic unity and cross-cultural dialogue.”
Point and Swing Big Band – Feb. 7 at 7:30 p.m.
“They have been entertaining audiences in central Massachusetts since 1998, through a mix of public concerts, charity benefits, and upscale private events. Following a traditional “big band” format, the band’s repertoire spans the classic early swing sounds of the 1930s and 1940s, to the intricacy of today’s modern jazz. In an evening with Point n’ Swing, you’ll groove to cool arrangements from Count Basie, Duke Ellington and Thad Jones, and feel energized by the sounds of Buddy Rich, Weather Report and Gordon Goodwin”
Carolyn Waters – Feb. 14 at 7:30 p.m.
Waters blends blues, roots and folk into “powerful and unique” performances.
Five O’Clock Shadow – Feb. 15 at 7:30 p.m.
They are “one of Boston’s premier a cappella groups whose live performances are nothing short of electrifying – the kind that reverberate in your memory long after the stage lights fade. FOCS has captivated audiences worldwide, not just with their technical prowess and creative arrangements, but with a palpable energy that turns every performance into a unique and thoroughly entertaining experience for the senses.”
Tedusco Duo – Feb. 16 at 4 p.m.
The duo is “a lively flute and guitar duo from New England comprised of Arielle Burke on flute and Catherine O’Kelly on guitar. They perform repertoire from all eras, with an emphasis on contemporary music. Arielle and Catherine began performing together in 2011 as students at The Hartt School.”
