    With the use of delicate materials, Lauren DiCioccio creates soft sculptures of objects disappearing from the everyday, for better or worse. Replicas of newspapers, currency, and plastic bags and bottles are formed out of dainty fabrics tediously hand–embroidered with thread.

    2011 SFJAZZ Spring Season — Go Home (with Ben Goldberg, Ellery Eskelin, Charlie Hunter & Scott Amendola)
    Mar 18, 2011 12:00am
    YBCA Forum

    Tickets available at sfjazz.org »
    Clarinet virtuoso Ben Goldberg's latest project is the tough, sinewy quartet Go Home, an all-
    star combo including saxophone iconoclast Ellery Eskelin, guitar star Charlie Hunter and drum
    maestro Scott Amendola. Goldberg sparked the new Jewish jazz movement in the late 80s with
    the New Klezmer Trio, and his determination to work with Hunter inspired him compose the music for Go Home — tunes marked by earthy melodies, spacious harmonies and low down beats.
