The first Frost Chopin Festival and Academy in Miami celebrated the work of Polish composer and pianist Frédérick Chopin (1810-1849) with a week of waltzes, mazurkas, nocturnes, etudes, sonatas and polonaises. With the festival’s second edition about to begin (June 23-July 2), few can argue against the enduring appeal of…

Just when you thought the drawn-out soap opera between the City of Miami and Ultra Music Festival had reached its finale, Commissioner Keon Hardemon is staging an encore. Hardemon has sponsored a resolution to negotiate the return of Ultra to Bayfront Park, its longtime home until this year. The resolution will be discussed at a commission meeting Thursday, June 27.

Like many of us, Daniel Gorostiaga gleams when recalling his formative years. Or maybe in his case it’s a sludgy gleam. In the early ’90s, when he cofounded the sludge-metal band Cavity, he thought Miami’s music scene was at a high point.

Canadian hip-hop artist Nav will take the Fillmore Miami Beach stage next Thursday, June 20, and bring fellow Ontario rapper Killy with him. Nav has yet to cross into the mainstream, an issue he brought up in a recent Pitchfork article when he complained that paparazzi still don’t photograph him.

Since jazz lost its place to rock ’n’ roll as the dance music of the day, oh, about 60 years ago, presenting it has become as much an art as a business.

On a typical day, blaring car horns and chattering pedestrians compose much of the soundscape in Miami-Dade County. On the Summer Solstice, however, residents and visitors can hear new tunes and melodies on the streets of Miami Beach, Kendall, and most other cities and neighborhoods south of the Broward County line.

n recent years, there’s one type of show that’s become practically unavoidable for concertgoers: the co-headlining tour. What was once a particularly rare practice among established acts has become one of the most common trends in live music, with team-up tours commanding summer rosters at venues around the country. South Florida alone has dozens of these shows slated for the next few months, from Korn & Alice in Chains to Beck & Cage the Elephant.

Things are about to get a whole lot louder and hazier in Miami. The California stoner-doom metal trio Sleep will stop at Miami’s the Ground June 18 for its first South Florida show. The group, which was a cornerstone of Southern California’s early-’90s stoner-rock explosion, has a slow, heavy, and pummeling sound that helped to define an era of metal music.

Growing up in Germany, Christian Löffler was enchanted by music of both the electronic and analog varieties. “I found out about music software programs at 14. I wanted to learn everything. It took a while for me to find my strategies and concepts.” Löffler says.

When Mix Live returns to American Airlines Arena June 8, Miami will host top talent such as Ozuna, Anuel AA, and Zion & Lennox. But be sure to keep an eye on Karol G. Already a prominent female voice in the male-dominated reggaeton scene, she’s one of several women pushing the boundaries of urbano music…

It’s a late Friday afternoon in April, and Florence Welch is cozy at home in South London. Earlier in the day she did a bit of dance training, and then she had a sandwich. If this sounds at all banal for a figure known worldwide for her soul-rattling howl and…

A lot can happen in a year and for pop star Ariana Grande, a lot is an understatement. We’ve gathered the best and worst moments of Ariana Grande’s past year, from her loss of Mac Miller to her stunning Coachella headlining performance.

It’s conventional wisdom that Miami turns off the lights and hibernates for the low season. But if you’re a Magic City music fan, you’ve got plenty of reasons to stay up all summer long. Whether you want to dance the night away to current pop hits or hold up your…
