Acclaimed Croatian vocalist Astrid Kuljanic returns to the Soper Reese Theatre for an eclectic evening of jazz, Brazilian music, Croatian folk songs and more. From Carnegie Hall’s Weill Recital Hall and the Kennedy Center in Washington DC to major festivals throughout Europe, Astrid has performed all over the world. She’s joined by local favorite Ben Rosenblum, a pianist/accordionist from NYC who has made Lakeport a home away from home, performing at the Soper Reese seven times in the last six years. An internationally-touring, multi-instrumentalist and composer, Rosenblum brings a unique background in a wide variety of improvised music styles to his music. He feels at home in any musical genre, whether with his award-winning band, the Ben Rosenblum Nebula Project, touring with Rickie Lee Jones and her rock project, appearing alongside Forro in the Dark for late night Brazilian music or collaborating with Indian vocalist
Kiran Ahluwalia.
