Jazz at the KBr

The important presence of jazz in Friedlander’s work (his portraits for the covers of Atlantic Records or the three books he dedicated to the musical life of New Orleans) has inspired this program of concerts, organized in collaboration with the Conservatori del Liceu and the Voll -Damm Barcelona Jazz Festival.

Until the end of the exhibition (May 8), two trios integrated by musicians from the Conservatori del Liceu’s superior center will offer a total of 6 concerts as part of the jazz festival progrma. The repertoire will be inspired by some musicians portrayed by Friedlander, images that can be seen in the first part of the exhibition including great names of the jazz such as Ray Charles, Miles Davies, John Coltrane, Sara Vaughan, Ruth Brown, Aretha Franklin and Ornette Colemann, among others.
