DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Hannah E.\nMusicians: Gabriel Lochard\n\nJoin singer 
 Gabriel Lochard and pianist Aditya Mahadevan for an evening of song.\n\nFr
 om Gabriel:\n\nThe Known Body is a concert meditating on the body before s
 urgery. I have given many classical recitals in the field of the art song\
 , and am returning to this known body\, form\, and repertoire as I prepare
  for a life-changing\, gender-affirming surgery that will hopefully provid
 e relief from decades of chronic pain.\n\nThis surgery will\, I'm sure\, c
 hange the mechanics of my singing. All singing comes from the abdomen\, an
 d as the landscape of my physical and spiritual body prepares for this cha
 nge\, I want to sing some of the music I love most\, and that has shaped t
 he foundation of my practice as a singer and musician.\n\nWith my friend A
 ditya Mahadevan\, I will be offering songs by Hahn\, Schubert\, Brahms\, a
 nd Schumann\, alongside jazz\, free improvisation\, and works for solo pia
 no. This concert will also help support me as I prepare for a month-long r
 ecovery period. Please join us.\n\nGabriel Lochard is a vocalist\, pianist
 \, music teacher\, and dancer. They see communal music-making and dancing 
 as medicine\, using music to imagine a better world and to sustain hope in
  the midst of global violence and upheaval.\n\nMany of Lochard’s project
 s focus on the African diasporic experience\, drawing from opera\, jazz\, 
 Black folk\, and Afro-Caribbean music traditions. Since earning their bach
 elor's in music and master's in music history and literature at Harvard Un
 iversity and UC Berkeley\, respectively\, Lochard has sang\, danced\, and 
 directed theatre productions across Chicago and the Bay Area. Through coll
 aboration with other musicians\, community organizers\, and directors\, th
 eir work emphasizes love and liberation.\n\nSliding scale\, with $30 sugge
 sted donation — more if you can\, less if you need to. Nobody will be tu
 rned away for lack of funds.
