Megabreve

Jamme K. Chantler is the proprietor of Thelonious Monkfish and long-time lover of vocal and instrumental jazz. His aim is to bring the best jazz talent possible to his venue The Jazz Baroness Room without added cost to diners. In addition, he and his bookings director, Scott Goulding–one third of the Yoko Miwa Trio–are dedicated to musical education and work in conjunction with The Cambridge Jazz Festival and Harvard's Kuumba Singers' director Sheldon Reid to achieve that end.

The Mad Monkfish

<blockquote><h3>Megabreve (multi-styles bowed strings duo)</h3> English-born cellist Catherine Bent, an alumna of Cirque du Soleil, has performed and recorded in diverse genres with artists including Joe Jackson, Lee Konitz, Enya, Donna Summer, and A. R. Rahman. Her love of Brazilian music—especially choro and forró—draws her continually to Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo and the northeast of Brazil. A professor at Berklee College of Music, Catherine founded the Berklee Clube de Choro, and organizes roda de choro sessions to bring the conviviality of Rio nights to New England. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/CatherineBent" title="http://www.youtube.com/CatherineBent" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">www.youtube.com/CatherineBent</a>Multi-instrumentalist and educator Rob Flax describes his music concisely: “I play things with strings, I hit stuff, and I sing.” Behind this simple tag line lies a rich depth of genre-bending, from classical and jazz violin to bluegrass fiddle, to blues and rock influences, and beyond. Rob performs his original music solo (with looper pedal) and with his Boom Chick Trio, and he plays as sideman and session musician in many other projects. Rob is also the inventor of the Chessboard Drum Machine. <a href="http://www.robflax.com/" title="http://www.robflax.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">www.robflax.com</a> Rob and Catherine bring their fretless frolic to tunes of many kinds and their own compositions.
