In collaboration with San Diego New Music and the Athenaeum Music and Arts Library, percussionist and composer Nathan Hubbard presents his curated concert, "Mix and Match," which was originally scheduled for two years ago in March, 2020 — just before the pandemic forced performance cancellations. The project features an ensemble with Nathan Hubbard on vibraphone, Nicole Shue on violin, Sharon Taylor on cello, Ariana Warren on woodwinds and Anne Whattoff on vocals. Whatoff will perform on a set of "art songs," using lyrics by the late poet Dorothea Grossman. Also featured will be works from the unfinished "The Act of Leaving," and more original pieces. —Julia Dixon Evans, KPBS (from San Diego Weekend Arts Events) Related links: San Diego New Music on Facebook Athenaeum Music and Arts Library on Facebook San Diego New Music on Instagram Athenaeum Music and Arts Library on Instagram
