Jami Sieber in Concert with special guest Agu
"In Jami Sieber's hands, the cello becomes a statement for longing and freedom, for unbridled expression, and a prayer to tenderness that encompasses every emotion." Lloyd Barde - Common Ground Magazine
Internationally renowned electric cellist and vocalist, Jami Sieber, reaches inside the soul with compositions that are contemporary, timeless, lush, and powerfully evocative. Her style of performance has been recognized internationally and reflects a deep dedication to the arts as a medium of exploration and awareness of the interconnectedness of all beings.
Jami's music transforms from the deepest stillness to moving melodies and rhythms that light the soul on fire. Her life-long musical path moved from classical to folk, to rock/pop, to world and improvisation. Since launching her solo career, Sieber has entered into dynamic collaborations with an extraordinary spectrum of dancers, actors, poets, visual artists, improvisers, vocalists, and instrumentalists that span the globe. Her compositions have been used for Film, (PBS American Masters - Dorothea Lange: Grab a Hunk of Lightning, Queen of the Sun, Big Joy: The Adventures of James Broughton) and the popular video game, Braid. She has seven independently released recordings on her own label - Out Front Music. Jami Sieber is well known for her recording, Hidden Sky, that is born of her profound meeting with the elephants in Thailand. This ground-breaking CD opens a rare window onto an inner landscape that sings with reverence, joy, and beauty.
"Suddenly in the midst of Agu's bowls and Jami's bow I remembered tenderness and time and breathing and friendship and voluptuous space between doings and caring and generosity and waking up from the nightmare. Thank you for the gentle and fierce infusion of this blessing. This remembering." Kim Rosen, author of Saved by a Poem
Agu is a teacher, ceremonialist, storyteller, and singing bowl artist. She began her work with singing bowls within the public school classroom where she taught for 30 years. Her intention was to help open the students' ears to something new through listening to the silence, to the ringing, to the vibrations that went out beyond the hitting of the bowl, helping to bring focus, silence, and reflection to their day. From the classroom her work as a singing bowl artist and storyteller expanded to conferences, performing arts festivals, schools, and private celebrations across the country. Agu's circles of improvisational sound and storytelling create a safe and sacred environment connecting participants to their own relaxed state and to one another.
Tonight celebrates the release of Agu's debut recording Reach In, dedicated to all our children. The CD brings together bells, bowls, chimes, and cello to reveal a rich, contemplative acoustic sound of uninterrupted beauty that musically guides the mind and body to relax, focus, create, and awaken the gifts within.
Jami Sieber and Agu moved to Santa Fe from Seattle 5 years ago and are honored to present this special concert. Join them for this magical collaborative evening of music that resonates within and expands the heart.
