jazz today. All concerts in the Five at 5 Series take place at The Baltimore
Museum of Art, 10 Art Museum Drive, Baltimore. Subscriptions are $125.

The Hendrik Meurkens Samba Jazz Quintet features Hendrik Meurkens on vibes and harmonica, Jed Levy on tenor saxophone and flute, Misha Tsiganov on piano, Gustavo Amarante on bass, and Adriano Santos on drums. From tranquil bossa nova treatments to burning New York samba jazz versions by the way of inspired Chorinhos and in-the-pocket Sambafunk, The Hendrik Meurkens Samba Jazz Quintet explores the wide terrain of Brazilian jazz. The unique sound of the band is defined by Meurkens' trademark sound of jazz harmonica and vibes, with Jed Levy's dynamic tenor and flute plus the immensely swinging rhythm section of Tsiganov, Amarante, and Santos. For more information, please visit www.hendrikmeurkens.com.
