Eleonora Bianchini @ The Kendall Square Concert Series -- FREE -- Presented by Jazz Revelation Records July 26, 2007

Originally from Perugia, Italy, Eleonora Bianchini is a young singer who creates a warm and charming atmosphere through her voice. She is inspired by many Brazilian and Latin American artists, including Rosa Passos, Caetano Veloso, Mayte Martin, and Eva Ayllon. Bianchini has collaborated with artists and Berklee faculty members such as Oscar Stagnaro, Leo Blanco, and Dan Moretti, and has also recorded with Danilo Perez’s new Big Band project. She is currently recording a project that features her own compositions in different South American styles, with lyrics in English, Spanish, Portuguese and Italian.

 Jazz Revelation Records presents the 3rd Annual Kendall Square Concert Series, and is collaborating for the first time with the Institute of Contemporary Art to present Harborwalk Sounds: Berklee at the ICA. Both series offer FREE live music on Thursdays throughout the summer (complete schedule of dates and times below). Artists include Berklee student and alumni jazz, world, Latin, and r&b musicians, some of whom are featured on the new Jazz Revelation Records CD The New Old School, including Jake Hertzog, MUNDuO, Mateo Lugo, Zili Misik, Daniel Ori, Alex Terrier, and Juan Ospina.

Jazz Revelation Records (JRR), Berklee's student-run jazz record label, was formed in the spring of 2003. The label is made possible by a grant funded by the college. Under previous management, Jazz Revelation Records successfully released the compilation CDs Rebirth, Two, and Ars Nova. Under the direction of current president Michael Borgida, the label has just released its fourth album, The New Old School. For the new CD, JRR gathered eight young, passionate, and committed artists from around the world, all speaking the traditional language of jazz in a new way.

The Kendall Square Concert Series take place at 300 Athenaeum St., Kendall Square, Cambridge, every Thursday, noon to 2:00 p.m., June 7 – September 13. The Kendall Square Concert Series is sponsored by BioMed Realty Trust, Watermark Residences, and ConstellationCenter. For more information, please call (617) 577-7354.
