SUMMARY:Amanda Pascali
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS– \n$35\, General Admission \nCafé table seating  \nAmanda Pascali embodies the complexity of modern identity. Born to a mother from Cairo who grew up in France and an Italian father raised in Romania\, she's a mixed-race\, bilingual Gen Z troubadour perpetually caught between worlds. Quoting poet Ijeoma Umebinyuo\, she says\, "I'm often 'too foreign for here\, too foreign for home\, and never enough for both.'" Rather than lamenting this displacement\, Pascali has transformed it into her artistic superpower.  \nAs the rising voice of America's most ethnically diverse generation of young people\, singer-songwriter Amanda Pascali writes music that speaks to the experience of growing up as a first-generation American. After her songs went viral on social media\, she amassed hundreds of thousands of fans around the globe. Now\, her long-awaited new record\, Roses and Basil (a collection of Sicilian-English translations and original music produced by Robert Ellis\,) has been praised by NPR\, the Bluegrass Situation\, and numerous international outlets.  \n\nSponsored by

And they're still going strong: in May 2024\, the band released their long-anticipated tenth studio album Super Magick via Round Hill Records. Named one of the "100 Greatest Alternative Artists of All Time" by Billboard\, with a legacy that includes inspiring a classic Saturday Night Live skit\, Better Than Ezra spent 2024 on the road touring their headline Live a Little Tour in the spring and continuing through the year\, recently wrapping their Legends of the Fall: Tokyo Drift Tour.  \n\n– \n\n–\nSponsored by

SUMMARY:Close Encounters With Music: “On the Wings of Song”—Schumann’s Dichterliebe and Mendelssohn Piano Trio
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS$35 Balcony / $60 Orchestra (plus processing fees)\nMahaiwe Member Discount Event \nMahaiwe Members receive $5 off each ticket \nRobert Schumann’s setting of Heinrich Heine’s song cycle Dichterliebe—A Poet’s Love—is spellbinding. Love and betrayal are rendered with such intimacy that the boundary between singer and listener disappears. It is Romanticism at its most exquisite. Mendelssohn\, too\, was captivated by Heine’s genius and set several of his poems\, including “On Wings of Song.” His majestic Piano Trio in D minor expresses his belief in a harmonious\, enlightened world and the triumph of beauty. The charismatic baritone Tyler Duncan\, joined by collaborator pianist Adam Golka\, brings profound psychological insight to the text.  With a voice described as “honey-coloured and warm\, yet robust and commanding” (The Globe and Mail)\, baritone Tyler Duncan has performed worldwide to great acclaim in both opera and concert repertoire\, including major roles at the Met\, Spoleto Festival and with Handel and Haydn Society. \nTyler Duncan\, baritone; Adam Golka\, piano; Miranda Cuckson\, violin; Yehuda Hanani\, cello

SUMMARY:BEATrio: Béla Fleck\, Edmar Castañeda & Antonio Sánchez
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS—\n$49 – $89 (plus processing fees)\nMahaiwe Member & Youth Discount Event  \n$49 Reserved\n$74 Preferred\n$89 Premium  \nMembers receive $5 off each ticket  \n$15 ages 30 and under (visit the Box Office or call 413-528-0100\, Wed – Sat\, 12-4pm)  \nBanjo. Drums. Harp. Huh? \nTo be sure\, the new all-star trio of Béla Fleck\, harpist Edmar Castañeda and drummer Antonio Sánchez features instrumentation that might safely be called uncommon. Unless\, of course\, you're already familiar with 19-time Grammy-winner Fleck – the genre-blurring virtuoso who has done more to expand the possibilities of the banjo than any other player in the instrument's history. From his bluegrass beginnings through his otherworldly Flecktones\, his duo with Chick Corea and his reimagining of Rhapsody in Blue\, Fleck's work never fails to surprise. What doesn't surprise is the impeccable caliber of his collaborators – and this new trio includes two of the most gifted musicians of their generation.  \n "I'm fascinated by what they do and how they break the rules." – Felix Contreras\, NPR Music  \nThe harpist\, Castañeda\, hails from Bogotá\, Colombia\, and has led his own bands in addition to sharing projects with such masters as Hiromi\, Paquito D'Rivera and Grégoire Maret. Five-time Grammy-winner Sánchez grew up in Mexico City and built a reputation as one of the great jazz drummers through his work with guitarist Pat Metheny.  \nThe new album BEATrio is out now! Playing original repertoire\, much of it collaboratively written\, this trio embarks nightly on fearless explorations that audiences will find irresistible — rich with strong melodies\, gorgeous harmony and grooves that twist and turn while feeling fantastic. \n"Fleck's most ambitious collaboration to date\, and contains some of the most extraordinary instrumental work by all three musicians." – Jazzwise  \n\n–\nSponsored by Dr. Beth B. and Jeffrey N. Cohen

SUMMARY:Branford Marsalis Quartet
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS\n$69 – $99 (plus processing fees)\nMahaiwe Member & Youth Discount Event   \n$69 Reserved\n$79 Preferred\n$99 Premium  \nMembers receive $5 off each ticket \n$15 ages 30 and under (visit the Box Office or call 413-528-0100\, Wed – Sat\, 12-4pm)  \nSaxophonist Branford Marsalis is one of the most influential and revered figures in contemporary music. The NEA Jazz Master\, Grammy Award winner\, and Tony and Emmy Award nominee is equally at home performing concertos with symphony orchestras and sitting in with members of the Grateful Dead\, but the core of his musical universe remains the Branford Marsalis Quartet. After more than three decades of existence with minimal personnel changes\, this celebrated ensemble is revered for its uncompromising interpretation of a kaleidoscopic range of both original compositions and jazz and popular classics. After receiving Grammy nominations on its last two albums\, Upward Spiral and The Secret Between the Shadow and the Soul\, the Quartet made its Blue Note Records debut with the release of Belonging\, a full album interpretation of Keith Jarrett's 1974 ECM album of the same name. The New York Times commented "Marsalis has tackled imposing jazz masterworks before…but at its best\, his 'Belonging' goes deeper…it's a performance that both honors and amplifies." John Zeugner captured the impact of the Quartet in a review of a live performance\, calling it "casually confident\, professional\, cerebral\, and supercharged with energy. The Branford Marsalis Quartet…was all of those adjectives and more."

SUMMARY:Los Lonely Boys
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS\n\n$34 – $69 (plus processing fees)\nMahaiwe Member & Youth Discount Event  \n$34 Limited Upper Balcony\n$49 Reserved\n$59 Preferred\n$69 Premium  \nFor Los Lonely Boys—brothers Henry\, Jojo\, and Ringo Garza—family has always been at the heart of their music. After years of touring\, the trio took a break in 2019 to focus on their families\, returning to the road in 2022 reinvigorated and even opening for The Who. \nHailing from San Angelo\, Texas\, the Garzas created their own bluesy “Texican rock & roll” sound and turned it into a global sensation. Their breakthrough came when Willie Nelson’s nephew discovered their demo; Willie soon booked them for Farm Aid and recorded with them at his studio. Their 2003 debut album\, Los Lonely Boys\, re-released by Epic\, featured the No. 1 hit “Heaven\,” which earned them a Grammy and spent 76 weeks on the Billboard Top 200\, selling over two million copies. \nThey’ve collaborated with legends like Carlos Santana and Willie Nelson\, played iconic venues\, and supported global causes. Their journey\, chronicled in the documentary Cottonfields and Crossroads\, has seen both triumph and hardship—most notably Henry’s serious stage accident in 2013\, which led the band to refocus on what matters most: family and music. \nNow back in stride\, Los Lonely Boys continue to write\, record\, and tour with renewed passion. Their 2024 release\, Resurrection (BMG)\, blends their signature Texican rock & roll with elements of soul and roots music\, earning critical acclaim and energizing live audiences. More than two decades after their debut\, they remain a vital force in music\, proving their story is still unfolding. \nSponsored by \n \n  \n
