CHROMA (ST PAUL)

An event of both colorful and musical intensity and vividness.

Jenny Klukken is a classically-trained percussionist turned jazz/world musician. Performing primarily on the marimba, Jenny combines her technical training on the instrument with world, jazz, and folk music. Her compositions fuse her many musical interests; the complex rhythms of Latin America, the improvisational freedom of jazz, and the singable lines of American folk music. Her approach to the marimba, an otherwise classical chamber-ensemble instrument, is unique, approachable, and enjoyable for all types of listeners. For the first time, Klukken will start the evening with an Art Show of her intensely colorful acrylic flow paintings. Art viewing will also be available during intermission and after the concert.

All proceeds from ticket and art sales will go to Klukken's latest project, recording her debut album.

Jenny Klukken: Marimba Songs

Jenny Klukken: Marimba Songs

​Jenny Klukken and special musical guests present an evening of marimba-centered music inspired by classical, Latin, jazz, and American folk music. Along with Jenny Klukken on marimba, the audience will hear Robert Everest (guitar/vocals), Michael Bissonette (percussion), and The OK Factor (violin: Karla Colahan, cello: Olivia Diercks).

In the spring of 2018, Jenny Klukken traveled to Paris to study marimba, composition, and improvisation with Eric Sammut through the Metropolitan Region Arts Council "Next Step" grant. In addition to her time taking rigorous lessons with Sammut, Jenny spent her time composing works for marimba that incorporated her unique approach to the instrument. Jenny's compositions and arrangements give a new voice to the modern marimba, an otherwise classical/repertoire-based instrument, and leave room for improvisation and free-play.

This event is the premiere of works from this grant project, in addition to past compositions and arrangements by Jenny. The group of 5 musicians will also perform various works that have been collectively arranged, as well as pieces that highlight guests musicians.
