Dan and Claudia Zanes in Concert

May 1

Grammy Award winner Dan Zanes and Haitian-American jazz vocalist Claudia Zanes perform a mix of old and new songs from near and far in a style that’s been called “All-Ages Social Music.” In other words, when they perform it’s a party! The selections are drawn from Dan’s celebrated catalogue; their Kennedy Center commissioned folk opera called Night Train 57; the House Party songbook published in 2018, and the upcoming Smithsonian / Folkways release “Dan + Claudia Zanes Let Love Be Your Guide.” During these highly interactive shows, the audience is invited to dance and sing along in what might be called a casual and subversively educational festive atmosphere. The music is homespun, joyful, sophisticated, and artful. These performances appeal to audiences of all ages and the duo is
also well loved in school settings.
