Join bassoonist Lecolion Washington as he performs a recital featuring music from his album Legacy: Music for Bassoon by African American Composers. You will also learn how a conversation with Archbishop Desmond Tutu transformed Lecolion's perception of the power of music and the trajectory for his career. Come to also be part of a discussion around the ways in which the identities of musicians can work alongside their artistry to have even greater impact.
