Two Wings: The Music of Black America in Migration
Filmed live on Sunday, April 14, 2019
Kennedy Center Artistic Director for Jazz Jason Moran and mezzo-soprano Alicia Hall Moran’s deeply personal concert experience examines the Great Migration—the major demographic shift following emancipation in which millions of African Americans left their homes in the South for the North, West, and beyond. These men and women brought their unique musical tastes and awareness with them, as well as new concepts of instrumental excellence with African American rhythms.
