Think you have rhythm? See where it all comes from. All musical roads lead to Africa one could say and this concert will lead us down the road to the many music genres we can tie to this statement. From simple Afro-Cuban beats,  reggae, Latin & straight jazz this concert will take us through the history of rhythm in music.  

 

Michel Ferré's classical and jazz training as a pianist in Havana greatly influenced his musical formation and who he is today. Michel has collaborated with American singer, songwriter, producer and actress Lauryn Hill and Spanish singer Concha Buika. "El Coco"is his latest CD production of originals and Cuban classics in collaboration Lázara Martínez , Armando Arce “Pututi” Jeff Hofmann, Edward Magdariaga, Hansel Herrera, Vladimir Espinosa among many others. Michel currently lives in Miami with his wife and two children.

 

PAUSA's owner, Cuban born Lázara Martinez began her violin studies in Havana Cuba at the age of 8. After receiving her Honor Diploma from the Amadeo Roldan Conservatory, she emigrated to the Dominican Republic where she was a member of the National Symphony in Santo Domingo. She was also a member of the National Symphonic Orchestra of Cuba in Havana and a soloist & principal violinist with the Camerata Romeu. She migrated to the States in 1998 and received a Bachelor's degree in Media Production from SUNY at Buffalo - Summa Cum Laude - Phi Betta Kappa and a Masters Degree in Documentary production from the City College of New York. Lázara has been a member of the Slee Sinfonietta, a substitute violinist with the BPO, the co-founder of the String Quartet Boléo and member of the Afro-Cuban Jazz group "El Coco" with whom she recorded the self titled CD " El Coco", released in 2017. 

 

David Jonathan of The Inner City Bedlam grew up in Buffalo, NY. David attended the Buffalo Academy for Visual and Performing Arts and made a name for himself as one of the most virtuosic and soulful drummers in the region. He relocated several times to find work as a session drummer, toured extensively, and ultimately came back home to be with family and settle into a routine as an in-demand Buffalo musician.

Thank you for supporting PAUSA & live music in Buffalo, looking forward to your visit.
