On the 130th anniversary of the birth of Russian poet Marina Tsvetaeva, acclaimed Russian-born saxophonist and composer Lena Bloch performs the world premiere of My Name Is Marina, a jazz suite for ensemble and voice featuring her own English translations of Tsvetaevas works.Throughout my life, Tsvetaeva has served as a model of resilience as an immigrant, an artist, and a woman, says Bloch, identities which have been under siege in modern political discourseall the more reason to amplify her voice for a modern audience.Joining Bloch for the performances will be vocalist Kyoko Kitamura, pianist Jacob Sacks, bassist Ken Filiano, and drummer Michael Sarin.
