SUMMARY:Intergenerational Jazz Power Jam Festival 2022
DESCRIPTION:Intergenerational Jazz Power Jam Festival 2022 is a 4-part music series of family-friendly concerts in Northern Manhattan during June 2022, celebrating and highlighting the creative connections between the African American and Latin American roots of jazz. The Intergenerational Jazz Power Jam Festival 2022 is produced by Jazz Power Initiative, an Inwood-based non-profit organization founded in 2003, and presented in collaboration with the P.S. 4 Duke Ellington, Jazzmobile and the Hispanic Society Museum and Library.\nOur Intergenerational Jazz Power Jam Festival is being offered for free, for general audiences of all kinds. Our Festival is being launched with new partners, at public venues including the newly re-opened Hispanic Society Museum and Library in Washington Heights, and the Interchurch Center in West Harlem with Jazzmobile.\nOur Festival concert series will feature a cross-cultural, multidisciplinary and intergenerational array of professional jazz music and acclaimed performing artists presenting both classics and original, contemporary works. These include a premiere of a new music commission, based on the poem “Black Notes” by Sandra Maria Estevez, and selected highlights from our original Jazz Power musicals for K-12 students, with songs addressing socially relevant themes such as facing climate change, embracing diversity, navigating young adulthood, standing up for voting rights, and sharing the healing power of the blues.
