Our Reinhardt Refracted pr0groam explores the many shades of Django, including music that inspired his aspirations as a composer. Hear both well-known Django tunes as well as some of his more seldom-performed pieces paired–like fine wine–with music by Claude Debussy, Amy Beach, Germaine Tailleferre (& more!). We’ll also share a ghazal by the great Mehdi Hassan, born in pre-partition Rajasthan–the land where the Romani peoples originated. Like light passed through a prism, come experience
the many colors of Django Reinhardt!
Trio RASA is a collaboration between Linda Vogt, violin;
Aniela Marie Perry, cello; and yours truly, piano.
