Here’s what Brooklyn Rails says about it:
December 9, 10, and 16: Sara Serpa. Serpa is one of the most interesting vocalists on the jazz scene; with her delicate, cooly precise voice she expresses everything from standards to boss nova to wordless improvisation with intelligence and musicality. On December 9 and 10, she’ll be in duo with the great pianist and composer Ran Blake, at Kitano, then on the 16th you can catch her at Shapeshifter Lab, with the exciting line up of singers Aubrey Johnson and Sofia Rei, her frequent musical partner, guitarist André Matos, cellist Erik Friedlander, and drummer Tyshawn Sorey. That program is an eight-movement suite by Serpa, setting the writing of philosopher Luce Irigaray.
