Spend a summer afternoon immersed in the warm sounds of bossa nova, jazz, chanson, samba, and Latin American rhythms with Paris-based French-American singer and guitarist Ramsay Rawson.

Joined by Eric Vanderbilt-Mathews on saxophone and clarinet, Rawson brings his internationally acclaimed Paris Bossa Nova project to Stuyvesant Square Park. Inspired by the French-Brazilian cultural exchange of the 1960s, the performance blends Brazilian classics, jazz, French chanson, and timeless melodies into an intimate outdoor concert.

Rawson has performed throughout Paris, Tokyo, and New York, appearing at venues including Sunset Sunside, Maison de l’Amérique Latine, and the Musée de Montmartre.

Bring a friend, relax beneath the trees, and enjoy an afternoon of beautiful live music.
