7-9pm Talking Strings - Instrumental Trio "Reunion"!
Pavel Jany leads the "Talking Strings" in addition to having founded several international jazz projects on the Twin Cities' music scene, including the Brazilian jazz ensemble "Ticket To Brazil", jazz/fusion group "Global Jazz Collegium", co-founder of Duo CORDA and occasionally performs and records with other local and international artists. His long musical journey encompasses many various styles, enriched by influences from East European Romani music of his native Czechoslovakia, to the works of jazz fusion guitarists, and many Brazilian guitar masters. His three year stay in West Africa and his travels to Brazil and other South American countries deepened his interest in Afro-Brazilian and Latin music.
One of the Midwest's most sought after jazz violinists and pan-musical stylists, Gary Schulte is a master improvisor and performance composer to whom Stephane Grappelli gave his most sincere blessing. His ability to interface with musical styles of all genres is unique among violinists and well known to the Twin Cities music community. He has gigged with some of the greatest artists of the Gypsy Jazz genre, including guitarist legend Dorado Schmitt, as well as classical improvisation with harpsichord master Layton James to the avant-garde with David Byrne, and extensive collaborative work with many theatre and vocal groups.
Matt Senjem is a versatile bassist originally from Rochester, MN, and key contributor to the Twin Cities music scene for over 20 years. With a strong foundation in jazz from the University of Minnesota, he has performed and recorded extensively across various genres. In addition to bass, he plays trombone and other instruments, and regularly performs with some of Minnesota's most talented and hard working musicians and bands.
