Two-time Edison Award-winning and six-time Grammy nominee Chris Scott aTunde Adjuah comes to the Library of Congress with his latest work, Axiom. Trumpeter, composer, producer and innovative artist, he is the creator of “Stretch Music,” a jazz-rooted, genre-blind musical form that tries to “stretch” jazz’s rhythmic, melodic and harmonic conventions to encompass multiple musical forms and cultures. Chief Adjuah is also the creator of a signature line of instruments including the new Adjuah Bow. Join us for an evening of powerful sounds from the mind of one of the finest and most fearless sons of New Orleans.
There will be no pre-concert talk for this event.
NOTE: Due to ongoing repairs in the Library's Coolidge Auditorium, events scheduled for that venue may need to be rescheduled for other locations. For the latest updates, you may register for the event in advance, return to this page, or subscribe to the Library's Upcoming Events email feed.
