About this concert
WE EXIST!
WE EXIST! is a rallying cry and a reflection on a journey in progress. Transforming evocative songs of protest like “Mississippi Goddam,” “Trying Times,” “The Danger Zone” and others, the Dee Dee Bridgewater Quartet connects the past and present ,tracing how far we’ve come and how far we’ve yet to go.
Dee Dee Bridgewater’s incomparable vocals and interpretative acumen are at the helm alongside the talents of musical director and pianist Carmen Staaf (Thelonious Monk Institute Fellow and DownBeat Critics Poll Rising Star).
Uplifting young artists is an imperative for Bridgewater. In North America, she features Amina Scott (faculty member at Loyola University New Orleans and University of New Orleans) and Shirazette Tinnin (professor at Berklee College of Music), who both take part in The Woodshed Network, Bridgewater’s non-profit for women in jazz. In Europe, she showcases Rosa Brunello and Evita Polidoro - both talented, in-demand musicians.
WE EXIST! serves as a reminder of the impact of activism and artistry through the inimitable lens of powerful women.
Dee Dee Bridgewater is an NEA Jazz Master, Memphis Music Hall of Fame Inductee, ASCAP Champion, Doris Duke Artist, Multiple Grammy® winner, Tony® winner, and more.
