Soulful songstress Tiffany Austin explores the art of storytelling, guiding us on an adventure to other places through song.
For this family matinee, music becomes our very own time machine through which we can travel to the past, present, and future, and on to other worlds. Austin and her musical co-pilots—pianist Tammy L. Hall, bassist Marcus Shelby, and drummer Leon Joyce Jr—share the magical compositions of Mary Lou Williams, Eden Ahbez, and others, and celebrate the indelible songs of our jazz lexicon.
