Take Two is an immersive deep-listening night consisting of two elements: an uninterrupted, high quality playback of a seminal jazz album, followed by a live, modern day reinterpretation by New York City’s finest musicians.

Our first event will feature the 1964 classic album that popularized bossa nova worldwide: Getz/Gilberto by American saxophonist Stan Getz and Brazilian singer and guitarist João Gilberto, featuring pianist and composer Antônio Carlos Jobim.

The live reinterpretation will be performed by Matt Whyte, a Brooklyn-based multi instrumentalist, composer and producer. In addition to scoring horror movies and singing Brazilian music, he has spent 2018 finishing up his second album as Rupe Shearns.

Take Two will be held in a private loft space in Bushwick featuring vintage Klipsch loudspeakers and comfortable seating arrangements.
