Woodwinds Bandleader

Get ready for an unforgettable night as the GSU Jazz Band takes the stage with interna tionally renowned clarinetist, saxophonist, and bandleader Anat Cohen . Nominated for three Grammy Awards, Cohen is celebrated for her captivating performances, acclaimed Latin jazz and world music recordings, and her large jazz ensemble album “Triple Helix.” The Israeli native-turned-New Yorker will join the talented musicians of the GSU Jazz Band for a lively night of memorable music.

“Ms. Cohen on the clarinet was a revelation. She could evoke infectious joy and conjure a deep, soulful melancholy. Even as she was playing the most technically difficult of all the reed instruments, she took my breath away. With the tenor saxophone it was immediately apparent that she was a terrific musician, fluid, full-throated, with a knack for creating beautifully crafted, even eloquent solos.”
