Lori Bell and Mikan Zlatkovich
The Pleasure of Your Company chamber music series sponsored by the Scripps Ranch Friends of the Library welcomes back flutist Lori Bell, accompanied by pianist Mikan Zlatkovich.
Known as a flutist and composer of admirable depth and broad musical sympathies, Lori Bell has earned acclaim from both peers and critics for her artistry on stage and in recordings. She is equally fluent in both jazz and classical idioms and will present a mostly jazz program. The Grammy Award panel has recognized Lori’s excellence with selections in several categories, among them Best Instrumental Arrangement, Best Composition, and Best Instrumental Solo. She has also won a 2011 Global Music Award, the Award of Excellence. When not performing or recording, she teaches both classical technique and jazz improvisation as instructor of flute at San Diego State University.
Mikan Zlatkovich, one of San Diego’s premier jazz pianists, is known for his dazzling technique and use of often dense harmonies. There is no charge for the concert, although donations are appreciated. Meet the musicians at a complimentary reception following the concert.
