Cost: $32 - $37
The Athenaeum Jazz at TSRI fall series concludes on Sunday, December 2, with a return by an Athenaeum favorite, Brazilian vocalist Luciana Souza, in her latest trio project, The Book of Longing, featuring fellow Brazilian Chico Pinheiro on guitar and Scott Colley on bass. In many of her recordings and past projects, Luciana Souza has paid tribute to poets and poetry—setting to music the poems of Elizabeth Bishop, Pablo Neruda, E.E. Cummings, Gary Snyder, and more recently, Leonard Cohen. For The Book of Longing, Luciana revisits some of these poets and includes new settings of poems by Leonard Cohen, Octavio Paz, Emily Dickinson, Edna St. Vincent Millay, Christina Rossetti, and others.
