Join us for the Africa Forum as we discuss African music traditions in the Americas, with a focus this month on Ragtime and the Blues.About this Event
We continue with our theme from last year: “Uplifting the African Diaspora through the Cultural Arts.” September's program will focus on two African American musical forms--Blues and Ragtime . We will feature excerpts from several films that explore these genres. We will also have a panel consisting of Blues and Ragtime musicians and enthusiasts. Our panelists are:
- Melody Angel, Electric Blues guitarist
- Billy Branch, Blues harmonica player
- Reginal Robinson, Ragtime pianist
This will be a hybrid event, and will be held at the Carruthers Center for Inner City Studies and online via Zoom.
