Such Sweet Thunder: A Listening Session with Courtney Bryan, Nicole Mitchell, and Brent Hayes EdwardsAbout this Event
POSTPONED: In support of the current Columbia University graduate student strike, the SUCH SWEET THUNDER listening session scheduled for this coming Thursday, December 2nd has been postponed. All Center for Jazz Studies events are cancelled until the strike is resolved. We are hopeful that by early 2022 we will be able to host this exciting panel.
Renowned composers and instrumentalists Courtney Bryan and Nicole Mitchell will join Professor Brent Hayes Edwards for a live listening session featuring the Duke Ellington Orchestra's 1957 recording of Such Sweet Thunder, sharing some of their favorite sections of Ellington's suite and discussing some of the innovative ways Ellington and his collaborator Billy Strayhorn orchestrated their classic "tone parallel" to Shakespeare.
Please note that though this is a public event, in accordance with Columbia University's COVID-19 protocols for public health, in-person attendance is restricted to Columbia affiliates. All other attendees can attend via the event livestream.
Location: Faculty House, 64 Morningside Drive, Columbia University, Morningside Campus
Please RSVP for a link to the event livestream and instructions for in-person attendance for Columbia affiliates.
