"Antonioli undertakes a rite of passage for a vocalist, emerging almost heroic by the end of it all. As a vocalist, Antonioli displays the spark that always flies when Joni Mitchell takes to song."

"The Music of Joni Mitchell"
The concert on November 9th is just the beginning. Please join us as we unveil our new interpretations of songs that defined a generation of listeners and players. Many jazz musicians are influenced by Joni, the "folk singer from Canada," and it turns out that Matt Clark and Dave MacNab are major fans. Matt, the other day, was playing song after song, by heart, one after the other, it was amazing - knowing her repertoire like that - and that's when I knew it was time to return to my roots and do this project. There's nothing more exciting than a group effort and the arrangements are gorgeous!
We'll be performing a handful of Joni songs, a handful of tunes from previous recordings and a handful of things that don't fall in either category. Three handfuls of music for you, in one set, on Friday, November 9th at 8pm. I can't wait! Purchase tickets here or call the school at 510-845-5373 to reserve over the phone. See you soon!!
