HAPPY BIRTHDAY! NYC: GATO BARBIERI BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION TONIGHT AT THE BLUE NOTE (sorry - sold out)
A Gato Barbieri Birthday Celebration will be held atTHE BLUE NOTE (131 West 3rd Street, NYC - 212-475-8592) on Thursday, November 28th at 8:00 pm. Mystical yet fiery, passionately romantic yet supremely cool - you hear those first few notes from that instantly recognizable tenor, and know you're in the unique musical world of Gato Barbieri. His enduring career has covered virtually the entire jazz landscape, from free jazz with trumpeter Don Cherry and avant-garde in the mid-'60s, to film scoring and his ultimate embrace of Latin music throughout the '70s and '80s. After many years of limited musical activity due to the passing of his first wife Michelle (also his closest musical confidant and manager) and his own triple bypass surgery six weeks later, Barbieri returned stronger than ever with the 1997 Columbia offering Que Pasa, the fourth-highest-selling contemporary jazz album of that year. Since that reemergence, he has continued to release albums, including The Shadow of the Cat (2002), which won Billboard's prestigious 2003 Latin Jazz Album of the Year award and garnered a Grammy nomination, and New York Meeting (2010), his latest release. There is a $30 cover.copyright 2013 - See cabaret listings from all over the world at CABARET HOTLINE ONLINE
