Jazz saxophonist Gato Barbieri will perform in the Cambridge Community Foundation's CityMusicFest's series on Sunday, Sept. 22 at 7:30 p.m. at Kresge Auditorium. The Argentine-born world music pioneer has recorded 50 albums and won a Grammy for his score for the film "Last Tango in Paris."
Proceeds from the festival - which also includes separate concerts by jazz vocalist Shirley Horn, the a cappella ensemble The Persuasions and six Cambridge-area ensembles - benefit the citywide Agenda for Children, an initiative of the Cambridge Kids Council. The event is supported by the MIT Office for Government and Community Relations.
