SUMMARY:Brad Mehldau
DESCRIPTION:Experience the critically acclaimed artistry of Brad Mehldau\, hailed by The New York Times as “the most influential jazz pianist of the last 20 years.” Known for his lyrical and innovative style\, Mehldau’s performances are a masterclass in musical ingenuity and emotional depth\, seamlessly blending jazz\, classical and pop influences. \n“Brad Mehldau is a giant of contemporary jazz piano whose musical language has always been difficult to define due to his healthy lack of respect for musical boundaries.”\n– All About Jazz \nABOUT THE ARTIST \nRenowned as one of the most lyrical and intimate voices in contemporary jazz piano\, Brad Mehldau has carved a distinctive path that blends jazz exploration\, classical romanticism and pop sensibility. Acclaimed as a bandleader and celebrated for collaborations with artists like Pat Metheny\, Renée Fleming and Joshua Redman\, Mehldau is admired by both jazz purists and broader music audiences. \nHis innovative approach to melding musical genres has resulted in stunning reinterpretations of songs by The Beatles\, Radiohead\, Paul Simon\, and Nick Drake\, as well as timeless classics by Cole Porter and Gershwin. These sit alongside a significant and ever-evolving catalogue of his original compositions\, performed in both solo and trio settings. \nWith his deep appreciation for popular music and classical influences\, Mehldau has been hailed as “the most influential jazz pianist of the last 20 years” (The New York Times). \n“Pianist Brad Mehldau is the ultimate jazz chameleon\, at home covering songs by composers as diverse as Cole Porter\, Thelonious Monk\, Radiohead\, Stone Temple Pilots\, Nick Drake\, George Gershwin and Massive Attack…He respects the sophistication that can be derived from these compositions and treats them all with equal reverence.”\n-Pop Matters \nBelow\, Brad Mehldau discusses his album ‘After Bach II’ and performs ‘Variations on Bach’s Goldberg Theme’ from it. The album is out now: https://bradmehldau.lnk.to/afterbachii

SUMMARY:Music in the Atrium: Celebrate Mother Earth with Johnny Fireseed
DESCRIPTION:Know before you go\nIn-person event\nLocation: Atrium \nIncluded with admission\nSalem residents and workers always get free admission. \nThis program will contribute to the sound in the Atrium. If you would like to borrow noise canceling headphones\, please pick up a KultureCity bag at the coatroom. \nABOVE IMAGE: Illustrations by Chris Cyr. \nThis month\, our Music in the Atrium series celebrates Planet Earth with live performances by Johnny Fireseed. A project of Framingham-based Fireseed Arts Studios\, lead by artist and musician Patiño Vázquez in collaboration with local musicians and craftspeople\, Johnny Fireseed uses instruments made entirely from upcycled trash and repurposed items to perform original music with an upbeat eco message. The band’s inspiring sound aims to spread a message of joy\, fun and new ways of thinking about consumption and waste far and wide. \nVázquez will be showcasing instruments made from locally harvested trash and live looping to create ambient soundscapes. Come hear high-end electric guitars made from old kitchen countertops and drums fashioned from ventilation ducts and popcorn tins in an aesthetic that’s “part Victorian Steampunk with elements of mystic meditations in heart-opening layers of rhythms and harmonies.” Building loops and then improvising over the loops gives the listener a feel for the looks and sound characteristics of each instrument. Audience members are often invited to join in the fun! \nMusic in the Atrium is PEM’s live concert series that features local and visiting performers from a variety of musical traditions and styles. Concerts take place on select Sundays. Explore upcoming shows at pem.org/events.

SUMMARY:Foreigners Journey - A Tribute to Foreigner and Journey
DESCRIPTION:From power ballads like “I Want to Know What Love Is\,” and “Faithfully” to anthems like “Jukebox Hero\,” “Stone In Love\,” “Cold As Ice\,” “Separate Ways\,” and “Don’t Stop Believin’.” Foreigners Journey are more than a tribute band. They’re a time machine\, and their energy is infectious. \nAlmost any music fan who came of age in the 1980s will cite Foreigner and Journey as bands that sound tracked their young life\, bands that are forever lodged in their mind. Back then\, the two acts might have been separated by an ocean\, but together they helped define the “magic era” of classic rock. \nAt one point not too long ago\, they toured the world as a one-two combination\, but don’t count on it happening again. Luckily\, you can count on Foreigners Journey\, a veritable tribute-band supergroup\, to deliver the unforgettable experience of seeing both bands in one knockout show.

SUMMARY:Hike & Seek: Sprouts of Spring
DESCRIPTION:As the snow starts to melt\, hints of green begin to bud and sprout which can only mean Springtime has arrived. From acorn to tree\, sprout to fern\, and spore to mushroom; the woodland forest is a revolving world of new plant species as far as the eye can see. Join us this April school vacation in North Andover to discover what is sprouting around you this Spring! \nParticipants will be emailed an activity bundle to help them look for clues along the trail and work as a team to discover the tiny world beneath their feet and under their nose. This is a self-guided program. Pre-registration required to receive downloadable bundle of spring themed created activities\, including maps\, scavenger hunt\, crafts\, additional reading list and recipes. \nThe special trail will run from April 13-April 27.
