☞ LISTEN: The Nina Simone Tribute

Friday, March 26th, 7:30 PM at Aaron Davis Hall. The Black Rock Coalition Orchestra presents one of its most captivating incarnations- the all-female tribute to the inimitable Nina Simone. Under the musical direction of composer Tamar-kali, this show was first performed in June 2003, mere weeks after the legendary singer's death. Seven years after her passing, and fresh off of a string of standing-room only shows in France, the Black Rock Coalition continues to celebrate Nina's legacy with performances that highlight Simone's unwavering influence on some of today's most dynamic musicians. DJ Reborn spins the mixer and after party. See more details and buy $25 tickets at the Harlem Stage site: LINK.
