A Triptych in Jazz
Dec

A Triptych in Jazz

A Triptych in Jazz is an innovative musical exhibition that seeks to redefine the boundaries of traditional art forms by channeling the visual arts through three distinct styles of jazz in an immersive, multi-sensory experience. The programming will consist of a collection of three exhibitory installations, each iconic sub-genres of jazz: Bossa Nova, Bebop, and Blues. The exhibition will open with a series of live musical performances in the respective styles of jazz, in that order, within a space of artworks specially selected to harmonize with the concepts and emotions expressed through each iteration of the musical form.

In this dynamic setting, YOU are invited to explore a curated space to socialize and engage in emotionally resonant artworks while experiencing diverse forms of a virtuosic musical genre emblematic of the city’s storied history.
