His work \;<strong><em>Black\, Brown and Beige</em></strong> \;is an American masterpiece that set out to broaden a person’s—and a country’s—sense of history. Critics panned its premiere in New York’s Carnegie Hall in 1943\, simply because it was ahead of its time.</p><p>Now\, 80 years later\, very special guest \;<strong>Audra McDonald</strong> \;will join \;<strong>The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra</strong>\, along with members of \;<strong>The Jazz Orchestra at Dr. Phillips Center</strong>\, players from \;<strong>Jazz at Lincoln Center</strong> \;and the \;<strong>Bethune-Cookman University Concert Chorale</strong> \;to honor Ellington’s most significant work. This monumental evening will feature the professional \;<strong>world premiere</strong> \;of the orchestration of \;<em>Black\, Brown and Beige</em> \;created at Ellington’s request.</p><p>Seats will fill up fast. \;<a href="https://tickets.drphillipscenter.org/production/13996"><strong>Get tickets now</strong></a> \;for the performance of a lifetime—as Steinmetz Hall continues to take its place as one of the world’s most important concert halls.</p><p><br></p><p>https://www.drphillipscenter.org/events/tickets/2022/black-brown-beige/</p>
