Rod Williams Solo Piano Concert at Pelham Fritz Recreation Center (Site)
Saturday February 3, 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
FreeNYC Parks Arts, Culture, & Fun Presents:
Rod Williams Solo Piano Concert
Join for a Black History Month celebration with Rod Williams; born in Detroit but long based in New York City, Rod Williams is a renowned pianist, keyboardist, and composer, with degrees in electronic music and interactive performance from SUNY Brooklyn College. A skillful accompanist who has worked with Cassandra Wilson, David Murray, Henry Threadgill, Geri Allen, James Carter, Julius Hemphill, Ronnie Burrage, Marcus Belgrave, and Tulivu Donna Cumberbatch among many others, William’s owns highly original work is under-appreciated–as Peter Watrous put it in the New York Times, “Rod Williams is one of the many musicians in New York who toil in the background, but shouldn’t. Mr. Williams deserves to be heard in his own context more often”. This is a rare opportunity to hear Williams in a solo piano performance. In partnership with the Jazz Foundation of America.
