SUMMARY:Edmar Castañeda Quartet
DESCRIPTION: \n\n\nByThe Side Door Jazz Club\n\n\nSaturday\, June 20  •  8 PM – 10:30 PM\n\n\n\nThere is no one in jazz quite like Edmar Castañeda — and he’s bringing his quartet to The Side Door \n\n\n\n\n\nEdmar Castañeda – Harp \nAndrea Tierra – Vocals \nBirsa Chatterjee – Tenor Saxophone \nJulian Miltenberger – Drums \nColombian-born and New York-based\, Edmar Castañeda has single-handedly redefined what the harp can do in jazz. Playing bass lines\, harmony\, and melody simultaneously on his instrument\, his technique is unlike anything else in music. NPR’s Fresh Air raves that his playing is “the real astonishment — Castañeda juggles lead\, rhythm and bass lines\, using a variety of hard and soft string attacks to keep those voices distinct\, all without giving up the groove.” The New York Times writes that he “engages modern jazz in ways that honor cultural origins\, and has the capacity to astonish by virtue of his fingerstyle technique.” Moses Sumney put it simply: “My brain cracked open when I first saw this.” \nA Latin Grammy nominee and member of BEATrio alongside Béla Fleck and Antonio Sánchez — whose album was nominated for a Grammy for Best Contemporary Instrumental Album — Castañeda has collaborated with Wynton Marsalis\, John Scofield\, Paquito D’Rivera\, Hiromi\, Dave Holland\, Marcus Miller\, Sting\, and Paco de Lucia\, among many others. He was commissioned by Carnegie Hall to write Bordones for string orchestra and EC Llanera Harp\, and by the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra to compose Tres Cordilleras for harp and big band under the direction of Wynton Marsalis. He is the creator of the EC Llanera Harp in collaboration with Camac Harps\, and has released eight acclaimed albums as a leader on his own label. \nJoining him is his wife and longtime collaborator\, vocalist Andrea Tierra\, along with an extraordinary rhythm section. This is a once-in-a-lifetime performance in a 68-seat room — not to be missed. \nThe Side Door Jazz Club is a dedicated jazz listening room located inside the historic Old Lyme Inn\, 85 Lyme Street\, Old Lyme\, CT. Tickets are reserved seating. Guests dining at the Old Lyme Inn prior to the show receive 10% off their dinner bill. \n\n\n\n\n
