As part of his Abraçaço world tour, Caetano Veloso and his Banda Cê performed at the Nonesuch Records 50th anniversary celebrations earlier this year at the Brooklyn Academy of Music and the Barbican Centre in London, which the Times called "a perfect evening," the Guardian "exquisite." The Arts Desk wrote: "Caetano Veloso gets more extraordinary."

The 15th annual Latin Grammy Awards ceremony was held on Thursday night at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas and televised live on Univision, following President Obama's White House address on immigration. For more on the awards and the complete list of nominees and winners, visit latingrammy.com.

    Brad Mehldau’s After Bach II and Après Fauré are out now on Nonesuch Records. The Bach album comprises four preludes and one fugue from the Well-Tempered Clavier, as well as the Allemande from the fourth Partita, interspersed with seven compositions or improvisations by Mehldau inspired by the complementary works of Bach—including Mehldau’s Variations on Bach’s Goldberg Theme. On Après Fauré, Mehldau performs four nocturnes, from a thirty-seven-year span of Gabriel Fauré’s career, as well as a reduction of an excerpt from the Adagio movement of his Piano Quartet in G Minor. Here Mehldau’s four compositions that Fauré inspired are presented in a group, bookended by two sections featuring the French composer’s works.
