Cosa Nostra Strings
March 1 @ 8:30 PM PST
Comprising a unique instrumentation of cello, viola, violin, trombone, bass, and percussion, the Cosa Nostra Strings are an offshoot of Adam Theis’ omnivorous Jazz Mafia conglomeration, performing an energetic mix of chamber music, funk, and jazz with an attitude rooted in punk rock. This exclusive concert is co-presented by the Noise Pop Festival.
Formed in 2015 and featuring a classically trained cadre of superlative musicians including violinist Shaina Evoniuk, violist Keith Lawrence, cellist Lewis Pazner, multi-percussionist Aaron Kierbel, and Theis on bass and trombone, the group has collaborated with Martin Luther, the Roots, Parliament-Funkadelic, Blackalicious, and many others. They were featured at Washington D.C.’s Kennedy Center in collaboration with GRAMMY-winning composer Mason Bates in 2019 and performed with award winning dancers Lil Buck & Jon Boogz in Guadalajara, Mexico for an audience of 10,000.
