Vibraphonist Patricia Brennan makes her Vivo Performing Arts debut with her Tentet in Of The Near And Far—a program in which she mapped constellations onto a musical Circle of Fifths, finding inspiration in the geometries of the stars themselves.
Beloved humorist David Sedaris brings his singular voice to Symphony Hall for an evening of sharp wit, surprising insight, and laugh-out-loud storytelling—with freshly written and unpublished pieces, diary excerpts, and the offbeat observations that have made him one of America's most distinctive literary performers.
A Berklee Global Jazz Institute graduate and Latin Grammy Cultural Foundation Ambassador, vocalist and songwriter Manuela Sánchez Goubert draws on the rich rhythms of South American folk music, weaving them into the language of contemporary jazz. Singing in Spanish and Portuguese, she leads her ensemble with bold imagination and boundary defying originality. Free and open to all!
Zambra Collective creates music through improvisation, deep listening, and shared creative language. The award-winning quintet draws its creativity from expansive musical practices rooted in flamenco, Romani, Persian classical, Indian, Catalan, and jazz traditions. Winners of the 2025 Detroit Jazz Festival Call for New Works Award, Zambra’s performances invite listeners into intimate sonic spaces of connection, curiosity, trust, discovery, and sisterhood.
Audiences can't get enough of Hiromi. A boundary-defying pianist, she returns with a must-see personal tribute—joining forces with bass legend Stanley Clarke to honor Chick Corea, with the brilliant PUBLIQuartet adding lush strings. Joyful, virtuosic, and deeply felt.
In a year rich with tributes to John Coltrane, this promises to be among the most compelling—the incomparable Dianne Reeves joining Branford Marsalis and his longtime quartet to honor Coltrane's landmark "classic quartet" collaboration with vocalist Johnny Hartman.
Leonkoro is Esperanto for "lionheart"—and this Berlin-based quartet, winners of nine prizes at the 2022 Wigmore Hall Competition, lives up to every spirited syllable. Alfred Brendel called them "perfectly unanimous, colorful and original."
Say farewell to a legend: Wynton Marsalis takes the stage for the last time as music director of the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra, stepping down at the end of the 2026/27 season. From first note to last, his victory lap will be one to remember.
In arias and duets from the most beloved bel canto operas, soprano Erin Morley and tenor Lawrence Brownlee take audiences on a journey through love's many guises—flirtatious rivalry, innocent infatuation, fiery accusations, and joyful sincerity.
Small but mighty, the "Ukes" are a tour-de-force of strings worthy of any musical wish list—jaw-dropping musical virtuosity on four types of ukuleles paired with humor ranging from bone-dry to almost slapstick. An evening of joy and musicianship that expands horizons and warms the soul.
