Becoming Human ... is a Trio performing Alternative, Jazz music.
Becoming Human ~ Songs of observation, realization & transformation
Vocalist/guitarist/percussionist Marji Zintz fronts Becoming Human, a newly formed trio (and sometimes quartet), which performs music composed by guitarist Jim Kunkel and bassist Mickey Kopchak. They explore and inhabit many genres across the musical spectrum, from folk to jazz, modal to avant-garde, spiritual to classical to Brazilian. They honor the space and each other’s unique and evolving “voice,” creating and holding a fertile ground for conversation, interplay, improvisation, and emotion.

Marji brings a long and diverse performance resume, working in myriad settings since the 1970s as a vocalist and guitarist. She has performed in voice-double bass duets with such notable players as Mike Richmond, Jay Anderson, Josef Pelletier, and Vin Warner. She also worked in a progressive jazz-based ensemble that included Erik Lawrence on reeds and Jim Kunkel on guitar, often using her voice as one of the horns. She has worked in collaboration with improvisational vocalists Victoria Christgau and Shula Ruth Weinstein in a mostly a capella recording and performance project called Sister Sound, and has arranged, recorded, and performed with many other innovative musical projects over the years as well as performing extensively as a soloist.

The Print House 1070 Main Street Fleischmanns, NY See Map
I'm looking forward to spending Sunday afternoon and evening at The Print House in Fleischmanns!
From 5–8 pm, I'll be sharing a wide-ranging mix of favorite songs—folk, jazz, Americana, classic pop, beloved singer-songwriters, and whatever musical adventures the moment inspires. My favorite kind of performance is one that feels less like a show and more like friends gathering around a shared soundtrack, and The Print House is the perfect place for that.
Come enjoy great food, good company, and a relaxed Catskills evening filled with music. Whether you stay for one song or for hours, I'd love to see you.
Thank heavens for farmers' markets... AND...thank the farmers! The setting for this market--a town park on the bank of the majestic Hudson River--is worth the trip from anywhere!
