Magos Herrera — live event
Mexican singer and composer Magos Herrera brings her new album Aire to National Sawdust, transforming through delicate alchemy the grief, fears, and loneliness of a deadly plague into “a celebration of our humanity and the healing power of music.” Aire (Air) is a luminous collection of twelve songs and includes her new compositions, commissioned by Chamber Music America's New Jazz Works, and jewels from the Great Latin American Songbook, such as "Alfonsina y el Mar" and "Gracias a la Vida." Those two classics suggest bookends of the experience in Aire, "Alfonsina ..." as an acknowledgment of impermanence and death, "Gracias a la Vida" as a prayer of gratitude for the many gifts of life. For this performance, Herrera will be joined by her jazz trio–Vinicius Gomes (guitar), Matt Penmann (bass), and Alex Kautz (drums)–and special guests PubliQuartet.
