WATERTOWN, Mass. (A.W.)—The second installment of the Armenian Cultural and Educational Center’s and Hamazkayin Boston’s summer jazz concert series, “Jazz in the Courtyard,” will feature the critically acclaimed folk-jazz ensemble Musaner on Aug. 4.
Led by composer and pianist Ara Sarkissian, Musaner has performed widely at top venues in Boston and New York, and in Italy and Switzerland. The New York Music Daily referred to ensemble’s most recent recording, “Once Upon a Time,” as “one of the most picturesque, intensely vivid albums of the year,” while Boston’s own WBUR referred to Musaner’s sound as “something that bridges East and West, that’s both familiar and exotic, delicate and powerfully high-energy.”
More information on Musaner is available at https://musaner.com. The ensemble will appear in its five-person lineup for an evening that promises to be memorable.
Tickets are $15 and can be purchased online at https://hamazkayinboston.org or by calling 617-926- 6067. Refreshments, drinks, and snacks will be available for purchase. The concert will begin at 7:30 p.m.
