USA: Jazz Roundup: Brazilian Quintet Up Next In Library Series; New Orleans Comes To Buttonwood


Baby Grand Jazz series at the Hartford Public Library.
Guitarist Dave Giardina carefully and aptly picked the word goza —Spanish for joy — as the name of his celebratory Latin and Brazilian jazz combo that he leads Sunday, Feb. 19, at 3 p.m. at the admission-free Baby Grand Jazz series at the Hartford Public Library.
Lineup: Jeff Taylor, woodwinds; Karina Hernandez, violin and vocals; Matt Dwonszyk, bass;  Jerrod Cattey, drums and percussion. Hartford Courant
