About this event

Dear Family and Friends:

The New York African Chorus Ensemble is proud to present the following free exciting programs, for your viewing pleasure, in celebration of Black History Month. 

Tuesday, February 9th 6:30PM EDT.

George Brandon is a composer, anthropologist, integrative sound and music practitioner and multidisciplinary cultural worker straddling the domains of art, science and spirituality. The Blue Unity Sextet, is drawn from members of the Blue Unity Orchestra and shares the same jazz-based but genre-defying orientation as the larger ensemble.

George Brandon's Blue Unity Sextet will take you on an intoxicating hour of music infused with many surprising elements from gospel, Yoruba chants, the blues, jazz standards, folk and world music, avant -grade jazz, experimental music or Afro pop.
