April 11, 2010
Add Review/Comment
NJW and the Frist Center for the Visual Arts announce the return of this popular Sunday afternoon lecture/performance series. Going into its fourth year, the series presents a monthly program spotlighting a significant artist, composer, or period of jazz history. NJW faculty artists provide stellar musical performances and informative commentary, giving audiences unique insights into the music.
Sunday, April 11 we explore the life and music of a brilliant innovator, Charles Mingus. Mingus was a major creative force in jazz from the 1950's until his death in 1979. His complex, original, and hard-driving music was matched only by his volcanic temperament. Although Mingus is well-known as a jazz icon, his music is not as familiar to most Americans. This program provides a rare chance for Nashville audiences to hear and learn about this music from an all-star NJW faculty ensemble under the direction of master saxophonist/arranger Denis Solee. Those attending will also receive free admission to the Frist galleries and discounted parking.
