Join us at Jazz, TX for an electrifying concert featuring the dynamic jazz duo Port Mande. This unique performance will blend the innovative sounds of jazz with the complex works of Béla Bartók and Paul Schoenfield. Through genre-defying artistry, Port Mande brings their exceptional talent and creativity to the stage. Don’t miss this opportunity to witness a concert that celebrates the rich diversity of jazz and classical music. Port Mande is the collaborative partnership between clarinetist Mark Dover of Imani Winds and pianist/producer Jeremy Jordan. The name Port Mande is a play on the linguistic term “portmanteau” – a word blending the sounds and combining the meanings of two others, like the word smog (itself a blend of “smoke” and “fog”). Much like a portmanteau, Dover and Jordan’s artistic partnership is a blend of all of their vast musical influences – having worked prolifically in classical, jazz, hip hop, gospel, pop, electronic and world music scenes. Port Mande’s mission is to bring all cultures of people together by embracing music of every genre. Under the Classical Music Institute umbrella, Chamber Connexions (CCX) aims to enrich San Antonio's cultural scene through the transformative power of chamber music. CCX presents exceptional concerts featuring renowned musicians, showcasing both traditional masterpieces and exciting new works. As always our kitchen and bar will be open for dinner service! See you at the show!
