DATE NIGHT at THE MET with Drs. Edward W. Hardy & Nnenna Ogwo
Drs. Edward W. Hardy and Nnenna Ogwo join forces at The Metropolitan Museum of Art for a special edition of Date Night at The Met, presented by The Met, Ethel, and in association with Juneteenth LP. Taking place on Saturday, June 14, 2025, from 5:00 to 9:00 PM, this dynamic musical experience celebrates Black artistry, elegance, and cultural expression. Their original program, Superfine, draws inspiration from The Met’s spring 2025 exhibition, Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, offering a rich sonic exploration of style, grace, and iconic flair. Listeners can expect mesmerizing swing, rhythmic swagger, lyrical joy, and haunting melodies during this genre-crossing evening of music, taking place in the Great Hall Balcony Café on the second floor. Superfine features music by Hale Smith, Aldo López-Gavilán, Florence Price, George Gershwin, Astor Piazzolla, and others, alongside original compositions by Ogwo and Hardy. This unforgettable evening brings together two virtuosic artists whose collaboration highlights the enduring influence of Black cultural innovation—through fashion, music, and beyond.
