"Invisible Jazz Giants" at the Marin JCC

Grab your Tickets Here

Description:

Join us for a very special appearance of The Gabriel Schillinger-Hyman jazz quartet featuring internationally acclaimed trumpetist Alexandra Ridout.

Today’s program celebrates the timeless works of Jewish, Black, Women, and Queer luminaries whose impact on jazz and popular culture in the 2nd half of the 20th century was profound and unmistakable. Yet, in order to make a living in an industry that reflected the structural racism, antisemitism, sexism, and homophobia that gripped the nation, many of these legends had to become invisible.

In a discussion of the lives and in the performance of the musical works of these invisible giants in jazz, these artists hope to bring to the limelight a part of American history that, like its players, has struggled to be seen and heard.

Invisible Giants: Jewish, Black, and Other Hidden Jazz Legends Of The Mid-20th Century

The Gabriel Schillinger-Hyman jazz trio returns to the New York National Council of Jewish Women to celebrate the timeless works of Jewish, Black, Women, and Queer luminaries whose impact on jazz and popular culture in the 2nd half of the 20th century was profound and unmistakable. Yet in order to make a living in an industry that reflected the antisemitism, structural racism, sexism, and homophobia that gripped the nation, many of these legends had to become invisible. In a discussion of the lives and in his arrangements of the musical works of these invisible giants in jazz, Gabriel’s trio brings to the limelight a part of American history that, like its players, has struggled to be seen. This performance features Gabriel Schillinger-Hyman (piano), his identical twin brother Eytan Schillinger-Hyman (bass), and rising NYC jazz star June Cavlan (vocals).
