Keys & Conversations provides youth and families the opportunity to witness performances and engage with musicians in specialized conversations on a variety of musical topics. Showcasing a diverse range of musicians, genres, and performance styles from across the global African diaspora, this program provides a fun and engaging introduction to music while also exploring connections between the songs and topics/themes throughout history. In partnership with Charleston Jazz, we invite youth and families to join us on May 4 for Keys & Conversations Feat. Momentum.
Momentum is what happens when jazz collides with fusion, R&B, soul, jazz, and gospel. Warning: Things might get a little funky, and we can’t guarantee you’ll stay in your seat! Brought to you by Charleston Jazz, this powerhouse ensemble features some of the finest musicians in the Lowcountry. Led by Demetrius Doctor, Momentum draws inspiration from the repertoires of Stevie Wonder, Jon Batiste, Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock, Jill Scott, Snarky Puppy, and more.
This performance is presented in partnership with Charleston Jazz. Founded in 2008, Charleston Jazz is a non-profit organization with a mission to build a local and global community for jazz through performance, education, and outreach while celebrating Charleston’s rich history in jazz.
This program is made possible through the generous support of the Hugh & Anne Dobson Donor Advised Fund in honor of Congressman James E. Clyburn.
