CLASSICAL SWING !

Join BEATRICE for a night where classical meets swing. BEATRICE jumps effortlessly from Beethoven to boogie, giving Chopin and Liszt a swinging, jazz-infused twist in a celebration of black women composers and artists such as Hazel Scott, Winifred Atwell, Lil Hardin Armstrong, Florence Price, and Margaret Bonds.

BEATRICE will perform with Matyas Hofecker (bass) and Matt home (drums).
