Ori-Gen Live Stream Series: Kavita Shah and Friends

Please join us for a special performance by vocalist and composer Kavita Shah, as part of the Ori-Gen Live Stream, this Thursday June 18 at 9 PM EST on Facebook Live. This program will also feature special guests Sofia Ribeiro/Juan Andrés Ospina, Sonia Shirsat, and a collective of musicians from Cape Verde produced by Stephan Almeida.
Kavita Shah is an award-winning vocalist, composer, polyglot, and lifelong New Yorker hailed by NPR for possessing an “amazing dexterity for musical languages”. Her projects blending modern jazz, folkloric traditions and new music include “Visions” (2014, co-produced by Lionel Loueke), the interdisciplinary work “Folk Songs of Naboréa” (premiered in 2017 at the Park Avenue Armory), and “Interplay” (2018) in duet with bassist François Moutin, which was nominated for a Victoires de la Musique (French Grammy Award) for Jazz Album of the Year. She is currently working on an album of traditional Cape Verdean music based on her ongoing ethnographic research on the island of São Vicente. Kavita regularly performs her music at major concert halls, festivals, and clubs on six continents, and her work has been supported by Chamber Music America, Jerome Foundation, and Camargo Foundation. She holds a B.A. in Latin American Studies from Harvard and a Master’s in Jazz Voice from Manhattan School of Music.
