Midtown Live Season 1-Series 2 (Site)

An evening of jazz, Afro-Cuban rhythms, and experimental sound with SHERMVN and Estefania Núñez Villamandos.

THE BLANC presents an evening of sound and cultural storytelling with baritone saxophonist and composer Ziaire Trinidad Sherman (SHERMVN) and Cuban pianist and composer Estefanía Núñez Villamandos. Each artist presents a set new solo works for their NYC debut. Drawing on the cultural legacies of the Black diaspora, Sherman connects history and futurism through improvisation, breath, and experimental sound. Núñez blends Afro-Cuban musical roots with jazz into an expressive piano language that speaks to personal experience and collective memory. Bringing together the resonant depth of the baritone saxophone and the piano’s rich textures, the two artists enter a musical dialogue rooted in their distinct cultural traditions and creative perspectives, inviting audiences to explore connections across place and time.
