The REACH Opening Festival at the Kennedy Center

Celebrate the music of prolific composer, harpist, and keyboardist Alice Coltrane with a performance by genre-defying young harpist Brandee Younger. A fearless and versatile talent, the classically-trained Younger has played with jazz royalty Ravi Coltrane, Jack Dejohnette, Reggie Workman, Charlie Haden, and Butch Morris, amongst others. She’s featured in Beyoncé’s new film “Homecoming” and new album “Soul Awakening,” and has worked with popular artists including Common, John Legend, and Drake. As her star continues to rise, she cites Alice Coltrane as one of her greatest influences. Experience the avant-garde magic of Coltrane favorites like “Blue Nile,” “Rama Rama,” and “Translinear Light” at this special concert.
