WELCOME TO THE 33rd ANNUAL FESTIVAL MIAMI!
On behalf of the Phillip and Patricia Frost School of Music and presenting sponsor UHealth – The University of Miami Health System, I am excited to invite you to attend Festival Miami, a month-long musical celebration now in its 33rd season.
Festival Miami opens January 19 with the Frost School’s Henry Mancini Institute Orchestra performing music from the Netflix television series House of Cards live-to-screen at the Adrienne Arsht Center. Our grand finale, copresented on February 11 with the GroundUP Music Festival at North Beach Bandshell, features Grammy winners Snarky Puppy and guests. All other concerts are hosted at the acoustically marvelous UM Gusman Concert Hall on the University of Miami’s Coral Gables campus.
Festival Miami is for everyone! Children of all ages will enjoy The Pop Ups Live. Classical music fans will be inspired by new music from Steve Reich, the Frost Flute Ensemble, mezzo soprano Alicia Hall Moran, the innovative Quattrosound, acclaimed pianist Kevin Kenner, premieres by the Frost Symphony Orchestra featuring mezzo-soprano Robynne Redmon, and the Frost Wind Ensemble with clarinet soloist Ricardo Morales.
Jazz aficionados will thrill to a Dizzy Gillespie Tribute featuring trumpet great Jon Faddis, the legendary Jimmy Heath, Ignacio Berroa and the Frost Concert Jazz Band. Trinidad-born Etienne Charles and Creole Soul will make their Festival Miami debut, as well as the scintillating singer Becca Stevens with the Frost Jazz Vocal 1 Ensemble. Latin music fans will groove to Tiempo Libre, La Santa Cecilia, Mau y Ricky, and superstar Jon Secada performing classics by Benny Moré with the Frost Studio Jazz Band.
In addition, we’re presenting creative American artists: DJ Mark Farina, the Miami debut of singer-songwriter Emily Estefan, pop music legend Bruce Hornsby, Billboard No.1 artists The O’Connor Band, and a virtuosic duo featuring slide guitarist Roy Rogers and violinist Carlos Reyes.
Festival Miami is a cultural jewel, made possible by the generosity of our wonderful sponsors, to whom we offer deep appreciation. Please join us for an unforgettable musical journey with musical artists of the highest caliber.
Enjoy!

BRUCE HORNSBY WITH THE HENRY MANCINI INSTITUTE ORCHESTRALife in the Psychotropics, and Other Musical AdventuresBRUCE HORNSBY, piano, vocals, composerCHRIS CROCE, bassSONNY EMORY, drumsHENRY MANCINI INSTITUTE ORCHESTRA Scott Flavin, resident conductor
Michael Tilson Thomas (MTT), being a fan of Bruce Hornsby’s recent modern, adventurous songwriting, asked Hornsby to appear as part of the New World Symphony's 2015 “New Works” concerts . Hornsby performed four songs with the orchestra, and afterward MTT asked him to expand his program for future collaborations . Seven more new songs were scored for orchestra, and now this set of 11 pieces will be performed at Festival Miami with the Frost School’s Henry Mancini Institute Orchestra . Reflecting modern classical influences such as Olivier Messiaen’s “musique d'oiseaux,” Anton Webern’s pointillism, Elliott Carter’s late-career piano music, Arnold Schoenberg’s twelve-tone melodicism, and Gyorgy Ligeti’s piano etude writing, this concert will include such songs (cowritten with Hornsby’s songwriting partner Chip deMatteo) as “Life in the Psychotropics,” “Neighborhood Watch,” “Adonis,” and “Here We are Again .”

JAZZ GOES TO THE OPERA ALICIA HALL MORANSings with Pianist Shelly BergALICIA HALL MORAN, mezzo-sopranoSHELLY BERG, piano
Mezzo-soprano Alicia Hall Moran, who starred in The Gershwins' Porgy and Bess on Broadway, and pianist Shelly Berg present a hybrid evening of stellar opera and jazz, first curated by Opera Southwest . Known for pushing the boundaries of performance with passionate flair, Moran and Berg explore the points of intersection and lyricism of grand opera and jazz . Iconic composers from both great art forms get their due, from the improvisatory nature of arias by Gioachino Rossini to the drama in such jazz standards as Billy Strayhorn’s “Lush Life .” Gorgeous moments from Leonard Bernstein and George Gershwin will resonate in new ways alongside works from Clifford Brown and Stevie Wonder .

NPR’s All Things Considered says Trinidad-born Etienne Charles is a great young trumpeter who filters “calypso, reggae and other Afro-Caribbean musics into a modern jazz conception.” Perform-ing with his remarkable six-piece band Creole Soul, this concert features his ambitious San Jose Suite, an exploration of the histories and musical traditions of San Jose, Costa Rica; San Jose, California; and St. Joseph, Trinidad, a.k.a. San Jose during the era of Spanish colonization.
