Cal Performances 2011–12 Season to Include Dawn Upshaw, Kronos Quartet, Rokia Traoré, Sérgio & Odair Assad, Richard Goode
Cal Performances at the University of California, Berkeley, has announced its 2011–12 season, which will feature performances from a number of performers familiar to readers of the Nonesuch Journal: Dawn Upshaw and Rokia Traoré, each in a collaboration with director Peter Sellars, the latter also with novelist Toni Morrison; Kronos Quartet in the Bay Area premiere of Steve Reich's WTC 9/11; Sérgio and Odair Assad; and Richard Goode.
About this Album
Sérgio and Odair Assad perform wide-ranging work from their native Brazil, which the Los Angeles Times calls “a fertile fusion nexus for guitarists.” Says Sérgio, “Some people call this jazz, some call it avant-garde, but the Brazilians just call it popular music.” Included are works by Villa-Lobos, Pascoal, and works by Sérgio himself.
