Guitarists Extraordinaire: Joan Griffith and Sam Miltich, guest vocalist Connie Evingson
Saturday, January 28, 7:30 p.m.
Sunday, January 29, 2:00 p.m.
Black Box Theater
 Sponsored by the Twin Cities Jazz Society, this unique pairing of "Guitarists Extraordinaire" for back to back performances will feature Brazilian styles of Samba, Bossa Nova, Choro and Baiao. Included in the program will be standards from the Django Reinhardt and Cole Porter songbooks plus some original compositions. Griffith will add authenticity to the sound by playing mandolin and the Brazilian cavaquinho.
The Black Box Theater setting at the Bloomington Center for the Arts brings the audience and performers close together for these special string sounds with voice that can't be enjoyed as much in a larger theater setting. To be able to watch the players' fingers travel over the strings, to hear the voice of Dave Schmalenberger's percussion in the background from just a few feet away is a unique and wonderful experience.
$18 Adults, $16 Seniors/Students

Arne Fogel and Maud Hixson team up once again, along with special guest vocalist Reeves Cary, to bring you a panorama of the songs from the days when "Frankie went to Hollywood."
