DONALD VEGA QUARTET ALBUM RELEASE: AS I TRAVEL
Description
Pianist and composer Donald Vega leads an ensemble of international masters of swing in celebration of his latest release As I Travel. Inspired by the Guggenheim Fellow’s metaphorical journey through music and his literal journey of immigration from Nicaragua to the United States, As I Travel extols the human spirit. A bicoastal treasure, Vega remains a highly sought collaborator from New York to Los Angeles, as well as a prolific band leader. His quartet features acclaimed artists Carlos Henriquez and Obed Calvaire – the latter two, celebrated members of the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra. Don’t miss an evening of striking melodies, elastic syncopation, and deeply personal new music from a prolific artist.
