Gabrielle Pietrangelo is an independent musician and songwriter based in Tucson, Arizona. She has been involved in many bands and projects through the years, including Silver Thread Trio, a well-loved three-part harmony group that collaborated with Howe Gelb, Calexico, Amos Lee, and many others. Gabrielle’s current projects include her recent return to solo performance, a new indie-folk duo with violinist, Beth Daunis, which will release a single this fall, her 1940’s jazz trio with Ben DeGain and Thoger Lund, and the yoga-inspired musical ensemble, Chaparral Kirtan Band. In her Tucson Studio performance, Gabrielle shares her solo efforts against expansive projections in Centennial Hall. Although performing alone, Gabrielle’s music provides an ocean of sound and experience. The deceptively simple sound of her songs shimmers throughout the hall, filling the open space.

At a time when our nation questions the efficacy of effigy, Arizona Arts Live is creating a space for the community to further explore the conversation around monuments and their meaning. Australian artmaker, Craig Walsh challenges the traditional concept of monuments to celebrate living, contributing, members of our Southern Arizona community.  Monuments will take place each night from October 29 through November 29 in the trees of the University of Arizona. Projecting the faces of some of our local heroes in an outdoor environment that allows for physical distancing will provide the community an opportunity to engage with and enjoy this work at their own pace each evening.  Meet our Monuments Plan your visit: Employees, students, and visitors must use face coverings in all UArizona locations, both indoors and outdoors, in accordance with UArizona’s Administrative Directive. All visitors are encouraged to download Covid Watch Arizona, the University’s new, free and anonymous exposure notification app. Monuments starts daily at sunset. Allow between 30 minutes and 1 hour to enjoy the experience. Parking is available at Tyndall Garage, a short walk from Centennial Hall. Garage parking is free on Saturdays and Sundays, though exceptions may apply. On-street parking is also available in the Main Gate neighborhood. Location of our Monuments

Founded as a means to heal grief through music, D Faktion Nyne is a multi-generational family band that gives deeper meaning to the term family. Performing Waila, a genre of Tohono O’odham folk music that combines Chotis, Mazurkas, Wailas, Kwaliyas, and Cumbias, music has bonded this family through multiple tragedies and many triumphs. Damon Enriquez, the father, has always used music as a means to connect with his family and his community.  From his musical origins playing with his grandfather, he now counts 150 high school and middle school students as his musical pupils. Above all Waila is social, and as a result it brings people and cultures together.  D Faktion Nyne features four brothers, two sisters, and their dad having fun playing Waila. They have no rules and no boundaries, with ALL members having equal say in everything they do.
