One night, it’s the Campbell Brothers foot-stomping their way through a rocking, bluesy set of their “sacred steel” gospel music. Another it’s MIT’s Evan Ziporyn’s cello concerto version of David Bowie’s “Blackstar” with Maya Beiser and a light and projection show. Or a RISE concert with the sensuous singing of Jazzmeia Horn and local hip-hop artist Latrell James.
These are some of the highlights of an eclectic first season of music programming at Calderwood Hall under George Steel, Abrams Curator of Music at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum.
