Warp Trio's "Black Voices" features poetry by Langston Hughes, Ntozake Shange, Maya Angelou, and original spoken word material by emcee LiKWUiD, complemented with music by Duke Ellington, William Grant Still, Harry Burleigh, and original compositions by Warp Trio. It is suitable for all ages and a general audience.
Described as "A talented group that exemplifies the genre-obliterating direction of contemporary classical music (Columbia Free Times)", Warp Trio is an internationally touring cross-genre chamber music experience. Reflecting the combination of Juilliard trained members juxtaposed with members steeped in rock and jazz styles, the one of a kind trio (that even has a fourth member!) can be seen performing classical works in prestigious halls on the same tour where they headline a standing room only show at a rock venue. In addition to their electrifying public performances, they have gained a reputation for their innovative educational workshops with students from grade school through university level.
This event is free and open to the public.
