Save the date! Music in the Circle is a Dupont Circle concert series that occurs every Saturday at noon. Featuring incredibly talented local acts that are sure to make you dance, stopping by Dupont Circle on Saturday afternoons is a must.

At noon on Saturday, August 2nd, we will be joined by Simone Baron and her Brazilian jazz group beginning at noon! Simone Baron is a polyglot pianist, accordionist, improviser and composer whose work “ego-less, genre agnostic and without expectations” (JazzTimes) engages curiously and charismatically with a broad spectrum of idioms. In 2016 Simone founded Arco Belo, a diasporic chamber music ensemble that has toured nationally. Simone is a Victoria Artist and plays a Poeta XB Accordion and is a founding member of the Boulanger Initiative.

Simone Baron will be joined by a group to play upbeat chorro, samba, and Brazillain jazz that is certain to make you dance.

Swing by Dupont Circle Park on the afternoon of Saturday, August 2nd for some smooth Brazilian jazz and accordion vibes!
