Centrum’s Choro Faculty concert will be online this year, on Saturday, May 1 at 3pm Pacific time for approximately one hour. Tickets will be $10 per household and will be available online at www.centrum.org/tickets. You will receive a link to the performance.

Choro is the lively and engaging street music of Brazil that pre-dates the Bossa Nova. Now a Port Townsend tradition, this annual event produced by Centrum features masters of this delightful musical style who come together to perform a wide range of Choro favorites. The performers will be streaming live from Sao Paolo, Rio de Janeiro, Brasilia and Seattle and will include musicians who have become well known to Port Townsend audiences. Dudu Maia, bandolim and Artistic Director; Anat Cohen, clarinet; Douglas Lora, 7-string guitar; Alexandre Lora, pandeiro and percussion; Jovino Santos Neto, piano; and Daniela Spielmann, sax/flute.

Whether you enjoy sultry sweet ballads or lively sambas, you’ll love this concert.
