Arta Jekabsone - "Letters to Home" - at Jazz Gallery - March 26, 2020

Due to the Convid-19 emergency, this event may not proceed as advised. Please check the event website below for updates.

***

Latvian vocalist, composer, and arranger Arta Jēkabsone will present her 3rd original music project Letters to Home. The concert will be held at one of Arta’s favorite places in NYC – The Jazz Gallery, 1160 Broadway 5th Fl, New York, NY 10001.

Letters to Home is a multidisciplinary, bilingual concert performance that combines the elements of music, video projections, and storytelling. These stories conveyed through Jēkabsone’s original music are based on letters that Latvian people have sent to each other across time. Each letter will reveal insights into life as an immigrant, broken families, love and friendship, and ultimately, a sense of belonging. With this performance, Arta hopes to create an emotional and personal experience that allows different generations to come together and experience the time of the letter writing age. As a special feature of this performance, the Letters to Home team will encourage audience members to write their own special handwritten letter to someone.

Letters to Home will feature new emerging artists in NYC – Theo Walentiny (Piano), Tal Yahalom (Guitar), Hwansu Kang (bass), Connor Parks (drums).

When: Thursday, March 26, 2020, 7:30 pm and 9:30 pm

Where: Jazz Gallery - 1160 Broadway (at 27th st), 5th fl, New York NY 10001
