Emerging Artist Series: Carolina Calvache

The Vermont Jazz Center will present Colombian pianist, Carolina Calvache to perform as part of their Emerging Artist series.  This young artist has all the qualifications that the VJC is celebrating in this series: she is launching her first CD with a major jazz label (Sunnyside), she is a creative composer, she is highly accomplished on her instrument, she is a rising star in the eyes of both critics and peers and she is traveling with her own band.  Her musicians have studied and performed her complex material and are able to transcend its technical demands and add to the beauty out of her vision.  These musicians are Jaleel Shaw on saxophone, Yasushi Nakamura on acoustic bass and Rodrigo Recabarren on drums.
