September 26 at 7:30 pm Shigemi Matsumoto Recital Hall, $10 – $22
On Thursday, September 26, vocalist and pianist Marina Pacowski will take the stage at Cypress Recital Hall for a very special evening of music. Marina comes to us from Biarritz, France, and has been based in Los Angeles since 2017.
The evening will feature two distinct sides of Marina Pacowski’s musical persona: award-winning concert pianist and internationally acclaimed improvising jazz vocalist. The pianistic side will feature pieces from Schumann, Schubert, and Debussy, while the vocal side will feature music from Miles Davis, Charlie Parker, Antonio Carlos Jobim and Carl Saunders, among others. With special guest jazz pianist Jeff Colella, this promises to be a varied and exciting musical journey.
Marina Pacowski was born in Biarritz, France, where she began her musical journey as a classical pianist. There was always jazz in the house as well, as her father played saxophone and clarinet and her brother is a professional jazz guitarist.
Marina’s latest CD “Inner Urge” (on Summit Records) received rave reviews and widespread radio play across the globe, and features such jazz luminaries as Roy McCurdy, John Clayton, Peter Erskine, Josh Nelson, Larry Koonse, and the late great Carl Saunders (in his last recorded solo).
Jeff Colella is a highly sought after jazz pianist whose credits include Lou Rawls, Jack Jones, and many others.
