By: Kelsey Denette
On Friday, May 25 at 8pm acclaimed jazz musician, Sarah Manning returns home with Harmonious Creature featuring Skye Steele on violin, Aram Bajakian on guitar and Jerome Jennings on drums.
According to famed jazz writer Nat Hentoff, alto saxophonist and composer Sarah Manning “can swing as naturally as she breathes – an enlivening presence in the new generation of jazz makers. Manning plays – and writes – in what is unmistakably her own voice.” Her singular dedication to developing that voice distinguishes her from her peers, and illuminates a path rife with intrigue”. The arts blog Lucid Creature says, "Not only is Sarah Manning a fearless and intense player, she's a fearless and intense composer." But what of this Harmonious Creature? Is it unwieldy? Unsettling? Powerful or delicate? Should it be tamed, or will it curl up at your feet? Let it envelop you with sound, and decide for yourself. Now back on the East Coast, Sarah Manning comes to perform in the Warner’s Nancy Marine Studio Theatre. Tickets $30 can be purchased by calling the Warner box office at 860-489-7180 or online at www.warnertheatre.org.Videos
