The Wednesday Night Special

Wednesdays at 6:00 PM

The Anat Cohen Quartet

Anat Cohen ups the “cool factor” of jazz clarinet. She takes the instrument, and her music, into some delightfully unexpected places. Whether she’s jamming on straight-ahead Post-Bop or on some rich, multi-layered Brazilian or worldbeat grooves, Cohen delights and engages her audiences. Just like she did at 2014’s Iowa City Jazz Festival.
