Event
Claudia Schmidt & Laura Caviani
Join us for a beautiful evening with these two outstanding musicians. Caviani and Schmidt will be performing eachother's originals with a few surprises thrown in.
Laura and Claudia have been hearing about each other for over a decade and finally met about 4 years ago. They began a friendship of dynamic creation. Laura Caviani is classically trained holding a Bachelor's of Music from Lawrence University and a Masters of Music in Improvisation from the University of MichiganAnn Arbor. On the other hand, Schmidt has a more "freestyle" approach, learning by ear. This combination is sure to keep you at the edge of your seat!
"When Claudia sings a song, it stays sung" - Garrison Keillor
Claudia Schmidt has been perfecting her craft of performing for almost four decades. It is a quirky and wonderful hodge-podge (her word!) of music, poetry, story, laughter. drama, and celebrating the moment. Work in clubs, theaters, festivals, TV, radio has added depth and dimension, and since she has always included her original work along with very personal versions of the work of others, what you get is a unique look at the world from someone who says what she sees with clarity, humor, and wonder. The San Francisco Bay Guardian said: Schmidt's shows are a lot like falling in love. You never know what's going to happen next, chances are it's going to be wonderful, every moment is burned into your memory and you know you'll never be the same again."
With five CDs under her own name, and many more as a sideman, Laura Caviani has recorded with some of the best jazz musicians in the region. Her recordings have received such praise as stunningly fresh from JazzTimes and in a word, outstanding from Tom Surowicz of the Minneapolis Star Tribune. Recent commissions include diverse projects ranging from setting music to poetry to composing string quartets and choral works.
