About this Event
Dizzy Spellz offers an Afro futuristic lens at the intersecting cultural and spiritual dilemmas within the African Diaspora through the music of Dizzy Gillespie. From his coming of age through the racial and social dynamics in the Deep South, creating and curating the bebop movement in New York, to his spiritual journey to Africa and his delve into Afro Cuban music and the Baha'i faith, Dizzy was very much a head of his time.
Artists Sean Jones (trumpeter/musical director) and Brinae Ali (choreographer/tap dancer/vocalist) have teamed up to create a piece that fuses elements of jazz, tap, Hip Hop, and Bebop to articulate the social vernacular language of the African American experience.
