  • Omar Sosa Quarteto Americanos | Athenaeum Jazz The spring series opens on Thursday, March 27, at Scripps Research with a long-anticipated local debut as a leader of acclaimed Cuban composer-pianist-bandleader Omar Sosa and his Quarteto Americanos, featuring Josh Jones on drums, Ernesto Mazar Kindelán on bass, and Sheldon Brown on sax, clarinet, and flute. Sosa is widely celebrated as one of the most versatile jazz artists on the scene today. His musical trajectory traces the African diaspora from Cuba to Brazil; from Central America to Ecuador’s African-descent communities; from San Francisco and New York to his current home base in Barcelona. True to his Afro-Cuban origins, Sosa fashions a spirited vision of uncompromising artistic generosity that embraces humanity at large. Nominated for seven Grammy awards and twice for the BBC World Music Awards, Sosa received a lifetime achievement award from the Smithsonian Associates in Washington, D.C., for his contribution to the development of Latin jazz in the United States. The New York Times wrote, “Sosa's music is the unifying sort, yoking together Africa and jazz and Latin America and hip-hop. He makes it work, being one of those rare birds whose keyboard skills are near those of Chick Corea and Chucho Valdes.” Billboard commented, “Sosa is one of the truly illuminated minds of world jazz. He is shaping a new synthesis of Latin and American jazz.” The concert will be in person at the Scripps Research Auditorium (10620 John Jay Hopkins Drive, San Diego, CA 92121, north of Genesee Avenue in Torrey Pines Mesa). There are no physical tickets for these events. Your name will be on an attendee list at the front door. Doors open at 7 p.m. Seating is first-come; first-served.

Fedella Lizeth, Celeste Hernández, Jamil G. Baldwin, Aldo Cervantes, Elina Gonzalez, Alkaid Ramirez, and Raylene B. Olalde utilize photography and its intimacy to delve into the ubiquitous nature of family, home and land, examining the separations between people and place–how can home transcend the distinction between here and there? What does it mean to revisit what was once familiar? "Reencuentros: allá nos vemos/See you there" is organized by the SDSU Art Galleries. The exhibition is co-curated by William Camargo and Alexa Ramírez Posada. Programming is supported by the School of Art and Design, the Richard Anthony Marks Endowment and the College of Professional Studies and Fine Arts. SDSU Art Galleries on Instagram and Facebook
