The Uhuru Jazz Sessions presents violin virtuoso Regina Carter, who presents her latest project, “Gone in a Phrase of Air” - a musical, spoken word and media exploration into the destruction of African American and other communities across the United States.
Regina’s show in Pittsburgh will feature fellow Detroit Cass Tech High alum - vocalist and narrator Carla Cook, pianist Xavier Davis, drummer (and Regina’s husband) Alvester Garnett, and Ligonier native - bassist Chris Lightcap.
Grammy-nominated artist Regina Carter explores the power of music through the voice of the violin in a wide range of genres—including jazz, R&B, Latin, classical, blues, country, pop, and African. A recipient of the MacArthur “genius” award and a Doris Duke Artist Award, she has been widely hailed for her mastery of her instrument and her drive to expand its possibilities.
