    Da Camera of Houston presents Anat Cohen Quartet Clarinetworks: Benny Goodman and Beyond, Saturday, December 4, 2010; at  8:00 PM, in the Cullen Theater, Wortham Theater Center. Presented in collaboration with the Jewish Community Center.

    In her first Houston appearance, clarinetist and saxophonist Anat Cohen celebrates the music of The King of Swing. Cohen exploded on the jazz scene with two critically acclaimed records and multiple Downbeat critic’s poll awards. A Jazz Journalists Association Up and Coming Musician of the Year, Cohen has established herself as one of the primary voices of her generation.

    “[Cohen’s CD] Notes From The Village is a resounding confirmation; yes, she is the real deal.” – The New York Times

    “Cohen makes it seem easy, mixing a gift for melody and an improvisational fluidity that has few peers today.” – Downbeat

    “In many ways she’s an ideal: well prepared, passionately literate in music far outside her local circle, an improviser with gusto. She understands how dance rhythms leaven and quicken jazz…a full, even tone, especially on the clarinet, an instrument that could use another distinctive voice in jazz.” -- Ben Ratliff, The New York Times

    The jazz series also includes Tierney Sutton Band, Stefon Harris and Blackout, Lionel Loueke, Geri Allen and the supergroup WATTS featuring Jeff "Tain" Watts, Nicholas Payton, David Sanchez and Christian McBride.
