  • Black Music Seen LIVE at the BON Summit 2024
    This month, we’re bringing you an extraordinary episode of Black Music Seen, recorded LIVE at our BON Summit this past October!   Featuring two brilliant scholars: Dr. Matthew Morrison and Dr Richard Desinord, we explored the obstacles that hinder the integration and expression of Black cultural aesthetics in so called classical music.   What do we mean when we talk about “authenticity” and “aesthetics” in Black music? How do we continue to bring more Black culture into classical music? What can we learn from those who came before us?   Black cultural aesthetics are in focus in this episode.   🎧 Don’t miss this special episode of Black Music Seen, where live energy meets academic brilliance, offering a fresh perspective on the art we celebrate.

  • The Uptown String Quartet
    On today’s episode, we’re talking with The Uptown String Quartet, a group that was formed in the 80s and guided by the legendary American drummer and Composer Max Roach. The group started as a double quartet that played with Max’s band and later became a group that consisted of violinists Diane Monroe and Lesa Terry, Max’s Daughter - Violist Maxine Roach and their late colleague, cellist Eileen Folson.   This all-Black, all-women string quartet has pushed boundaries and redefined what it means to be virtuosi since the mid-80’s. From their roots in Harlem to stages across the globe, the Uptown String Quartet was one of the first groups to notably bridge African-American sounds - like blues, swing, jazz, soul, funk, and improvisation with string quartets.   From playing jazz venues like the Blue Note to performing notable programs like The Cosby Show and Mr. Rogers Neighborhood, we’re going to explore the quartet’s rich history, their memorable moments, and the unique stories that have shaped them as artists and as trailblazers in the music world.
