Valerie Coleman may be familiar to our audience as the flutist and founding member of the Imani Winds. She is also a celebrated and award-winning composer, named one of the “top 35 women composers” by the Washington Post. She has assembled an incredible group of instrumentalists (Monica Ellis, bassoon and Mariam Adam, clarinet from the Imani; Tai Murray, violin; Titilayo Ayangade, cello; Artina McCain, piano) for a limited tour. The concert, entitled “Reverie”, takes the listener back to the early twentieth century through the perspectives of Black artists who were at the center of “Le Jazz Hot” and the legendary Harlem Renaissance, juxtaposed with work by Debussy and Ravel.
