JAN 27 | 8 PM | Jack London Revue, Portland
Sardinian guitar innovator Paolo Angeli is a musical conjurer, an artist whose imaginative leaps defy gravity. A composer, ethnomusicologist and instrument builder who draws on his deep knowledge of traditional Sardinian music, he inhabits a timeless zone as a soil-rooted master and brash experimentalist. While suffused with Mediterranean cadences, Angeli’s original pieces encompass flamenco, jazz, Baroque, post-rock and new music. He plays a prepared Sardinian guitar of his own invention, a fantastical 18-string hybrid combining elements of guitar, cello and drums.
The second stop of Angelis’s tour will take place at the Jack London Revue in Portland, Saturday, January 27 at 8 PM.
Paolo Angeli will also perform in San Francisco and Seattle:
JAN 26 | 7 & 8:30 PM | SFJAZZ Joe Henderson Lab
JAN 28 | 7:30 PM | Ballard Homestead, Seattle
