Concert | Fefita La Grande, One of the Most Important Dominican Musicians - Outdoors
Over 70 years of creating and performing, Manuela Josefa Cabrera Taveras, better known as Fefita La Grande, has established herself as one of the most important figures in Dominican music. As a pioneer of the art of merengue t?pico, the rustic variation of merengue unique to the Dominican Republic, she is a rare female champion of the accordion, paving the way for countless other women in an otherwise male-dominated profession. Fefita has also earned considerable renown as a celebrated vocalist and phenomenally popular composer and lyricist, whose rendition of the traditional folk song "La Chiflera" is considered emblematic of t?pico's appeal. Her ability to reinvent her sound has kept Fefita's work freshly appreciated across generations, as proven by recent collaborations with stars like Milly Quezada and Krisspy. Fefita's Lincoln Center premiere on the big stage offers audiences an opportunity to witness the Queen of Merengue T?pico at her creative height.

Concert | Catalan Sounds on Tour - - Outdoors
A vibrant showcase of the music of Catalonia. Sidonie, a Barcelona-based psych-pop trio, is known for songs that seamlessly blend Hindu music, surrealism, and rock. After more than 25 years together, their latest LP, Marc, Axel and Jes, strips their sound to its roots, packed with bracing two-and-a-half-minute jams that capture the healing power of a great rock record. The Balkan Paradise Orchestra, an all-female ensemble comprising wind and percussion players, takes the spirit of the Balkans and infuses it with various rhythms and worldwide traditions. Their new album, Nectar, explores the world of bees, riffing on themes of travel, teamwork, and personal and collective effort. The self-taught composer and multi-instrumentalist Lau Noah has been breaking hearts and turning heads with her voice and guitar in New York City since 2014, but broke out in 2019 with her debut on NPR's Tiny Desk Concert series--the first Catalan artist to do so. The event is a unique opportunity to experience the rich and diverse Catalan music scene in New York.

Concert | Electronic Sounds in the Park: Music for Freedom
Caroline Davis formed Alula in order to feature electronic elements in her performances and compositions. “Alula” is the word for a structure on bird wings that appears during moments of take off, flight, and landing. Alula’s second album, Captivity, situates her compositions alongside the lives of eight heroes who kept hope alive through incarceration. The creative music community has majorly contributed to movements in civil rights through the years. From metaphorical lyrics by Ma Rainey and Bessie Smith, to Nina Simone’s impactful lyrics in Mississippi Goddam and Young, Gifted, and Black; jazz and creative musicians have always been present, creating artistic works to protest injustices and speak truth to power. Davis’ album stands on the shoulders of these influences, providing creative insight on the injustices present in the system of mass incarceration in America, and highlights the undeniable strength of those who have been, and some who are still, incarcerated.

Everywhere We Are is the Farthest Place, an iterative soundscape composition, combines an electroacoustic performance with field recordings of glacial geologic activity and oceanographic data Mary Edwards gathered while on an art and science sailing expedition on a research vessel above the 78th parallel in Svalbard. This ode rather than an elegy to the transforming Arctic based on eyewitness accounts of natural events—iceberg torrents, calving glaciers, whale song and converging subterranean rivers—is sonically recreated as a score with intention of “decentralizing the centered and un-othering the others.”

Concert | Ghanaian Music Legend in NYC Debut - in the Park
For the first time in America, Gyedu-Blay Ambolley and an eight-piece band will perform his 1975 debut album, Simigwa, in its entirety! Gyedu-Blay Ambolley is a musical luminary hailing from Ghana, West Africa, with a staggering 29 albums under his belt. Known affectionately as the "Simigwa Do Man,” Ambolley’s musical journey began in the vibrant port city of Sekondi-Takoradi, in the Western Region of Ghana. His early fascination with music blossomed into a lifelong passion. From mastering his father’s flute at the tender age of eight to honing his guitar skills under the mentorship of “Uncle Bonku,” Sammy Lartey, and Ebo Taylor, Ambolley’s musical odyssey has been nothing short of extraordinary. This all led to Ambolley becoming a musical life force and exploding on the scene in 1973 with a jazzy highlife sound called “Simigwa-Do.” His name has become synonymous with Simigwa music and dance. Gyedu-Blay Ambolley’s groundbreaking debut solo album, Simigwa, stands as a cornerstone of Ghanaian music history (and one of its most iconic album covers). Simigwa stands as Ambolley’s magnum opus, a masterpiece fusing together the rich tapestry of highlife, afrobeat, folk and funk. Also, Natu Camara is a powerhouse hailing from the vibrant heart of West Africa. As a dynamic singer, songwriter, and humanitarian, she blends Guinean traditional sounds with pop, soul, and rock, creating an Afro-rock experience that knows no borders. Natu's mesmerizing performances tackle global issues, from love to child marriage, loneliness, unity, and pressing concerns, touching hearts worldwide. Beyond her musical talent, she embodies, resilience, and hope, connecting spirits in a way that feels almost spiritual. Her unwavering commitment to social justice adds an inspiring dimension to her artistry, making her a true luminary in the world of music.

The Grammy-winning Christian McBride Big Band brings the celebrated bassist and bandleader’s take on the sprawling ensembles that dominated jazz in the early 1940s at the height of swing. McBride explores several extensions of his creative inspiration through various ensembles; this 17-piece iteration helped define a new big band sound that fuses traditional long-form compositions with more modern post-bop sound. Their latest, 2020’s For Jimmy, Wes, and Oliver, saw McBride and organist Joey DeFrancesco explore their shared love for the Jimmy Smith/Wes Montgomery collaborations of the late ’60s. This concert will feature pieces from that album as well as others from the Christian McBride Big Band. They’re joined by Wallace Roney Jr, a trumpeter who’s shared the stage with the likes of Chick Corea, Ornette Coleman, and Jimmy Heath, and carries the pedigree of his Grammy-winning father Wallace Roney (a mentee of Miles Davis).

Grammy-nominated jazz vocalist, composer, lyricist, arranger, and pianist Carmen Lundy has been turning heads with her voice for the better part of four decades; Her latest album Fade to Black features 11 original songs reflecting on loss, sorrow, healing, and her hope for a brighter future despite the invasive culture of modern technology. Helen Sung got her start studying classical piano, but a solo performance by Harry Connick, Jr. in her twenties moved her to shift into jazz. A skilled improviser with post-bop leanings, Sung studied under Ron Carter, Clark Terry, Jackie McLean, Sir Roland Hanna, Jimmy Heath, Wynton Marsalis, Barry Harris, and Jon Faddis, among others, and toured India and Thailand with Herbie Hancock and Wayne Shorter. She released her 8th LP Quartet+ in 2021. A force in the Chicago jazz scene, the young virtuoso and multi-instrumentalist Isaiah Collier experiments and explores new sounds on stage with his band The Chosen Few, making music that sounds destined for celestial realms, unhindered by terrestrial bounds. Rounding out the bill is vocal phenom Tyreek McDole, whose velvet-toned voice has continued to bring him accolades, most recently first prize at the Sarah Vaughn International Jazz Vocal Competition. Multi-talented DJ and host of WBGO’s podcast Milestones DJ KulturedChild aka Angelika Beener is on the ones and twos.

Concert | 3 Pop Rockers in Park - Outdoors
Snail Mail's Lindsey Jordan is a songwriter mature beyond her 24 years, pairing a bleeding heart with a penchant for pop hooks. She has a knack for turning bedroom confessionals into singalong screamers, from her earliest hits like "Thinning" to her breakout LP Lush. Her latest LP Valentine displays what she's capable of when backed by big-budget production values and a bevy of new experiences touring the world as the heir apparent to irreverent rock goddess Liz Phair. Co-headliner of the event is multi-hyphenate Tim Heidecker (of Tim & Eric fame), who, in addition to his comedy, acting, writing, directing, and hosting gigs, has put out six albums of tender and expertly crafted guitar music, balancing gentle melodies with his signature caustic wit. HIs latest LP High School is a concept album that explores truths about adulthood through the lens of his adolescence. In 2023, Brooklyn-based artist Fenne Lily released the gentle and gorgeous LP Big Picture, an achingly introspective exercise in seeking clarity in the uncertain; comfort in the uncomfortable.

Concert | Electroacoustic Music with Sounds of Nature
Everywhere We Are is the Farthest Place, an iterative soundscape composition, combines an electroacoustic performance with field recordings of glacial geologic activity and oceanographic data Mary Edwards gathered while on an art and science sailing expedition on a research vessel above the 78th parallel in Svalbard. This ode rather than an elegy to the transforming Arctic based on eyewitness accounts of natural events—iceberg torrents, calving glaciers, whale song and converging subterranean rivers—is sonically recreated as a score with intention of “decentralizing the centered and un-othering the others.”
