SF Performances Presents: Jason Vieaux, guitar & Sasha Cooke, mezzo-soprano

SEE EVENT DETAILS
Grammy(c)-winner Jason Vieaux is "perhaps the most precise and soulful classical guitarist of his generation," according to NPR. He is well known for a relaxed and affable stage presence paired with a fierce and flexible technique.

Jason recently made his debuts for Domaine-Forget Festival, Carmel Bach Festival, Wolf Trap, and made returns to Caramoor, Ravinia, and Philadelphia Chamber Music Society. Other recent venues include the National Gallery of Art, Amsterdam's Concertgebouw, the 92nd Street Y, Seoul Arts Center, and Shanghai Concert Hall. He has performed as soloist with over 100 orchestras, including Cleveland, Toronto, Houston, Nashville, and Orchestra of St. Luke's. In 2021, Jason Vieaux performed the premiere recording of a new solo work, Four Paths of Light, a new solo guitar suite dedicated to Vieaux by jazz legend Pat Metheny for his album Road To The Sun.

Double Grammy(c)-winning mezzo-soprano Sasha Cooke is at home and in demand from the world's opera houses to intimate concert halls. She has sung at the Metropolitan Opera, San Francisco Opera, English National Opera, Seattle Opera, Opera National de Bordeaux, and Gran Teatre del Liceu, among others, and with over 70 symphony orchestras worldwide frequently in the works of Mahler. 2022 marked the release of Ms. Cooke's CD entitled how do I find you. The recording, which features 17 newly written songs by Caroline Shaw, Nico Muhly, Missy Mazzoli, Jimmy Lopez and others, is intended as a tribute to both the struggles and hopes of artists that have been wrought by the pandemic.

The program will include works by Schubert, de Falla, Britten, Lennon-McCartney, and others.

$65/$55/$45.
