    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Ever since Cyrille Aimée won the inaugural Sarah Vaughan International Jazz Vocal Competition in 2012 with a quietly devastating ballad interpretation of “I’m Through With Love” she’s been a regular, incandescent presence on Bay Area stages. In a scene boasting an abundance of sensational 21st-century singers, the French-born artist has distinguished herself with her lustrous tone, vivacious scatting, rhythmic acuity, and a vast, polyglot repertoire laced with her finely crafted originals. But h

Contrary to programmatic appearances, they weren’t the only jazz giants who arrived on Earth in 1926. There are at least a half-dozen indispensable jazz artists deserving centennial celebration, including pianist/composer Randy Weston, trombonist/arranger Melba Liston, saxophonist/composer Jimmy Heath, and alto saxophonist Lou Donaldson.

    Fall arts 2026: Here are 7 Bay Area productions dance fans should know about (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    It’s a felicitous coincidence that the dance world pivots on the two seasons with action-verb monikers, fall and spring. The former is accompanied by swarms of students returning to classrooms and campuses, with the dance world snapping to attention in September. Chronologically we’ve still got several weeks of summer left, but the advent of autumn semester plunges us into the world of movement and music. It’s time to fall into dance, and dance into fall. Here’s a look at some of the dance produ
