SUMMARY:Cherish the Ladies: Celtic Christmas
DESCRIPTION:Cherish the Ladies brings an Irish musical glow to the holiday season with Celtic Christmas\, a festive blend of traditional tunes\, expressive song and propulsive step dancing. Led by flute and whistle virtuoso Joanie Madden\, the ensemble has spent four decades pairing instrumental brilliance with warmth\, humor and an instinct for audience connection. \nThe program places seasonal favorites alongside the reels\, jigs and ballads that have made the group one of Irish music’s most beloved ensembles. Beautiful vocals and finely detailed arrangements can turn tender in one moment and rambunctious in the next\, while dancers add another current of rhythm and celebration. It is a generous\, family-friendly holiday concert grounded in tradition and delivered with theatrical spark. \n(Check organizer/venue website to confirm event details.) \nInfo & Tickets

SUMMARY:The Fretliners: When The Kettle Sings Tour
DESCRIPTION:The Fretliners bring a truth-telling strain of acoustic American music from the landscape between the Colorado mountains and plains. Drawing from bluegrass\, Americana\, folk and rock\, the band builds songs around long roads\, changing seasons\, lost love\, stubborn hope and the places that continue to shape the people who leave them. \nTheir sound honors older string-band traditions without chasing nostalgia. Close harmonies\, finely matched musicianship and writing that feels lived-in give the music both grit and grace\, while the live performance carries the momentum that earned the group major new-artist honors at Telluride and RockyGrass. This is not a revival of the past so much as a renewal—familiar materials turned toward what comes next. \n(Check organizer/venue website to confirm event details.) \nInfo & Tickets

SUMMARY:Vienna Teng
DESCRIPTION:Vienna Teng writes songs that stay with listeners like conversations remembered years later. Her warm mezzo and piano-centered craft have moved through string-laced intimacy\, hushed jazz\, ambitious folk-pop and shimmering electronica\, giving each album its own world while keeping lyric and emotional detail at the center. \nThe concert draws from a catalog whose songs have become companions for weddings\, graduations\, coming-out journeys\, illness and personal change. Teng’s recent work also reflects parenthood\, climate engagement and the challenge of carrying multiple truths at once\, extending the connection between music and action beyond the stage. Expect an evening of thoughtful storytelling\, adventurous arrangement and the quiet power of a songwriter who trusts listeners to meet complexity with her. \n(Check organizer/venue website to confirm event details.) \nInfo & Tickets

SUMMARY:Joseph Tawadros: The Art of the Oud
DESCRIPTION:The Art of the Oud offers an intimate solo evening with Cairo-born virtuoso Joseph Tawadros. Playing the fretless\, pear-shaped lute central to Middle Eastern music\, he draws on the Arabic modal system of maqam while opening his original compositions to Baroque\, jazz and folk influences. \nThe program moves from fast\, technically dazzling passages to lyrical\, inward pieces that reveal the oud’s extraordinary range of color. As an ancestor of Baroque lutes and the modern guitar\, the instrument carries a long musical history\, but Tawadros approaches it as a contemporary composer as well as a master performer. Presented in Philharmonia’s SESSIONS series\, the setting is designed for close listening and direct connection with the artist. \n(Check organizer/venue website to confirm event details.) \nInfo & Tickets

SUMMARY:Ladysmith Black Mambazo
DESCRIPTION:Ladysmith Black Mambazo carries the sound of South African isicathamiya into a new generation. Founded by Joseph Shabalala in 1960\, the group transformed the close\, softly stepping vocal tradition developed by Black mine workers into a worldwide message of peace\, hope and cultural pride. \nThe ensemble’s layered harmonies became internationally known through Paul Simon’s Graceland\, but its deeper story is rooted in decades of singing through apartheid and beyond. Now led by members of the Shabalala family\, the group continues Joseph’s vision with voices that can feel both gentle and immense. The performance is a living link among family\, history and the enduring power of people singing together. \n(Check organizer/venue website to confirm event details.) \nInfo & Tickets

SUMMARY:Meshell Ndegeocello
DESCRIPTION:Meshell Ndegeocello brings a warm\, melodic bass groove and a career-long refusal of genre boundaries to the Freight. Across soul\, R&B\, jazz\, hip-hop and rock\, she has used music to investigate love\, justice\, desire\, respect and the possibilities of Black and queer expression—always choosing originality and longevity over easy categories. \nThe program reflects the expansive spirit of her recent Blue Note work\, including Synonym\, a project that reimagines songs from folk\, soul\, country\, pop\, alternative rock and hip-hop. Rather than treating covers as fixed objects\, Ndegeocello transforms them through arrangement\, collaboration and her own conceptual lens. The result is music as fellowship: familiar material opened to new meanings by a restless bandleader\, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. \n(Check organizer/venue website to confirm event details.) \nInfo & Tickets

SUMMARY:Fabiana Cozza
DESCRIPTION:Fabiana Cozza brings the breadth of Brazilian samba to the stage as singer\, interpreter and keeper of an Afro-Brazilian cultural inheritance. Raised close to the Camisa Verde e Branco samba school through her father\, Oswaldo dos Santos\, she absorbed a tradition in which music is inseparable from community\, memory\, celebration and survival. \nHer performance follows samba through the many worlds it holds: the ancestral sounds of the terreiros\, the colors and rhythms of Bahia\, the circles of Rio de Janeiro and the musical pathways that helped give rise to bossa nova. Cozza’s powerful voice does more than present a style; it reveals samba as a social language shaped under racial oppression and continually reinvented through the bodies\, histories and imagination of Black Brazilians. \n(Check organizer/venue website to confirm event details.) \nInfo & Tickets

SUMMARY:Väsen
DESCRIPTION:After nearly four decades of playing together\, Olov Johansson and Mikael Marin have developed the near-telepathic interplay at the heart of Väsen. Nyckelharpa and viola move through the traditional music of Uppland with precision\, humor and an intensity that can make two musicians sound like a much larger ensemble. \nTheir program travels among old tunes\, stories and the rich Bohlin–Tallroth tradition that first connected their musical paths\, while continuing to break new ground through original ideas and unusual string colors. Ancient dance rhythms meet a distinctly modern sense of phrasing and momentum\, proving that tradition can remain stable at its roots while changing shape in every performance. \n(Check organizer/venue website to confirm event details.) \nInfo & Tickets

Custom slide guitars\, saxophone and layered percussion create a program built on spiritual focus\, virtuosity and responsive ensemble playing.
