Virtual Program: Women in Jazz

On Tuesday, March 7 at 7PM via Zoom, celebrate Women’s History Month with a special look at Women in Jazz. Lecturer and master flutist Galen Abdur-Razzaq will highlight the influence women have had on the evolution of jazz and their significant contributions to the art form, while performing some of their music.

Women have been involved in jazz since the early 1920s, not just as vocalists, but as instrumentalists, composers and arrangers. Learn about some of these great female artists. Galen studied at the Berklee College of Music and holds a Master’s Degree in fine arts and education from Rutgers University. He has performed internationally and domestically for more than 30 years and is best known for his smooth, rich sound.
