Berklee Musicians Liven Up Lunch for Harvard Longwood Outdoor Diners Harvard Longwood Campus Presents Berklee, Featuring Blues by Noé Socha on August 3

At 12:30 p.m., al fresco lunch goers at the Harvard Longwood Campus will enjoy a free midday concert from harmonica player and guitarist Noé Socha. The blues musician who hails from Italy will join a list of talented artists performing for free every Wednesday at 12:30 p.m. through September 7, weather permitting. For more information on Berklee concerts in neighborhoods all over Boston this summer, visit Berklee.edu/events/summer. Hailing from Carpi, a small town in Northern Italy, Socha is anything but a typical blues musician.

Originally a classical musician, Socha discovered blues after he began studying with Enrico Zanella, Socha’s teacher at Musicology, a small music school in Modena, Italy. In 2008, Socha attended a Berklee in Italy program at the Umbria Jazz Festival, where he was awarded a full scholarship to attend the Berklee College of Music Five-Week Summer Performance Program after performing for a panel of Berklee representatives. During his summer at Berklee, Socha won many accolades including a full-tuition scholarship to continue his studies at Berklee as a full-time college student. Socha’s influences include Mississippi John Hurt, Muddy Waters, B.B. King, and Lightening Hopkins.
