Grammy-nominated JD Souther has penned countless hits for the Eagles, Linda Ronstadt, Roy Orbison, James Taylor, Don Henley, George Strait, Trisha Yearwood, Brooks and Dunn and found success as a solo artist.

Since his triumph at the 1970 Chopin Piano Competition, Garrick Ohlsson has established himself worldwide as one of the great American piano masters of the past 50 years, a musician of magisterial interpretive and technical prowess. Though long regarded as a leading exponent of the music of Frédéric Chopin, he commands an enormous repertoire, including more than 80 concertos ranging from Haydn and Mozart to works of the 21st Century. He returns to the Lobero for an all-Brahms recital on the heels of his virtuosic March 2017 performance for CAMA of the Brahms Piano Concerto No.2 with the St. Petersburg Philharmonic.

It’s 1740, and coffee houses are the places to listen to music and share stories, in both the famous trading center of Leipzig and one of the oldest cities in the world, Damascus. The latest Tafelmusik Baroque Orchestra multi-media musical offering Tales of Two Cities: The Leipzig-Damascus Coffee Houseilluminates each city’s striking features in common: both enjoyed a lively tradition of coffee houses in which the finest musicians of the city performed and both were also famous centers of scholarship and learning. Anyone who has attended one of Tafelmusik’s three previous multi-media concert projects at the Lobero in the past decade (The Galileo Project, House of Dreams or J.S Bach: The Circle of Creation) can attest to the incredible originality and conception of their insightful musical stage creations that combine live music, text and stunning projections transporting the audience back in time and place. Not to be missed!

Lauded by The Guardian for his “dazzling precision, fleet brilliance, and tender lyricism”, Latvian-born Israeli cello master Mischa Maisky is considered by many worldwide to be one of the handful of greatest living cellists. He has the distinction of being the only cellist in the world to have studied with both Mstislav Rostropovich and Gregor Piatigorsky and to carry on the deep musical legacy of these two great 20th Century Russian masters of the cello. His romantic emotion and absolute musical commitment carry the command of a true artist. It is fitting that Mischa Maisky will return by popular demand to the historic Lobero for the closing recital of CAMA’s historic 100th Concert Season.

A band of extraordinary chemistry and exquisite musicianship, I’m With Her features Sara Watkins, Sarah Jarosz, and Aoife O’Donovan. Collectively, the multi-Grammy-Award-winners have released seven solo efforts, co-founded two seminal bands (Nickel Creek and Crooked Still), and contributed to critically acclaimed albums from a host of esteemed artists. But from its very first moments, their full-length debut See You Around reveals the commitment to creating a wholly unified band sound. With each track born from close songwriting collaboration, I’m With Her builds an ineffable magic from their fine-spun narratives and breathtaking harmonies. The result is an album both emotionally raw and intricate, revealing layers of meaning and insight within even the most starkly adorned track.
With its piercingly lyricism, See You Around also finds I’m With Her showing the uncompromising honesty of their songwriting. That intensity is heightened by the band’s effortless harmonizing, which the New York Times has praised as “sweetly ethereal, or as tightly in tandem as country sibling teams like the Everly Brothers, or as hearty as mountain gospel.”
