Kibbey's NYC Record Release Party at National Sawdust
ABOUT THIS CONCERT
"Kibbey has the world at her fingertips."
The Star Tribune.
Kibbey invites you to celebrate her newest solo record release, Crossing the Ocean, with Pentatone Records.
Using her harp as a musical passport, Kibbey synthesizes the past with the vanguard of the new, via her signature keyboard transcriptions, newly-commissioned works from the record, then inviting two special guests on stage (NY Gypsy All-Star Clarinetist Ismail Lumanovski and Latin-Grammy winning percussionist Samuel Torres) as she acts as bandleader in the live launch of a new touring project celebrating today's Nuevo Latino luminaries.
Through it all, Kibbey is sending a musical love letter to just a few of the international communities in New York City, who've expanded her life – at and away from the harp. With works by:
J.S. Bach
Claude Debussy
Isaac Albéniz
Paquito d'Rivera
Kati Agócs
David Bruce
Samuel Torres
Bridget Kibbey
José Barros
Jacob de Bandolim
Juan Manuel Plaza
