We hope to present this program soon.
Women have been involved in Jazz since the early 1920s, not only as vocalists, but also as instrumentalists, composers, and arrangers. An understanding of jazz would not be complete without highlighting the influence and contributions of these women. In this Zoom webinar led by renowned flautist Galen Abdur-Razzaq, learn about the personal and professional lives of women musicians in a time when many considered jazz “a man’s world”. Galen will explore a full spectrum of years, genre, recordings, and recognized achievements. The program will include live performances by Galen and samples of the artists’ music. A Q&A will follow.
If we are able to reschedule, we will post a new date.
This Zoom webinar is brought to you by Centerville Public Library, Chilmark Public Library, Snow Library, Truro Public Library, and Vineyard Haven Public Library.
