Developed in 2016, August Greene features a blending of rap, jazz, R&B, and soul – speaking to the feelings and emotions surrounding the black experience. For one-night-only, Thursday, November 29, 2018 at 8:00 p.m., this dynamic trio will take the Academy of Music stage performing their new peaceful and profound music. “The three incredibly talented musicians that make up August Greene are providing audiences with a soundtrack for the world we live in today,” said Ed Cambron, Executive Vice President of the Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts. “Music plays such an important role in how communities express themselves; this presentation is a first on the Kimmel Center Cultural Campus, and we hope it serves as a catalyst for conversation as well as an enjoyable evening of hybrid artforms.” Since 1992, the Chicago-born Common has uplifted listeners with his emotive blend of hip-hop and soul, releasing some of the genre’s greatest work, including 1994’s underground breakthrough Resurrection (featuring the classic “I Used to Love H.E.R.”) and 2000’s Like Water for Chocolate (a magnum opus featuring the Grammy® nominated single, “The Light”). In recent years, Common has turned his attention to the silver screen, appearing in high-profile films like Smokin Aces (2006), American Gangster (2007), Selma (2014), Suicide Squad (2016), and John Wick: Chapter 2 (2017). In 2015, his track “Glory”— the official theme of Selma—won the Oscar®, Golden Globe, and Grammy® for Best Original Song. Robert Glasper, a Houston-born pianist known for his esoteric mix of jazz, rock, and soul, has long created music that defies expectation. Across various albums—including 2005’s Canvas, 2007’s In My Element, and 2009’s Double Booked—Glasper has occupied his own space in black music, straddling the line between mainstream and underground, gathering his own accolades along the way. In 2012, the musician’s Black Radio—a massive collaborative effort featuring Erykah Badu, Bilal, Lalah Hathaway, and Musiq Soulchild, among others—won the Grammy® for Best R&B Album. Two years later, Glasper’s “Jesus Children”—a remake of Stevie Wonder’s 1973 cut of the same name, featuring Hathaway and poet-actor Malcolm-Jamal Warner—won the Grammy® for Best Traditional R&B Performance. Then in 2016, Glasper’s score for director Don Cheadle’s Miles Ahead won the Grammy® for Best Compilation Soundtrack for Visual Media. Karriem Riggins, a Detroit native, is a world-renowned percussionist and producer whose work can be heard on Kanye West’s The Life of Pablo, Kaytranada’s 99.9%, and Esperanza Spalding’s shape-shifting Emily’s D+Evolution, among many other albums. As a beatmaker, Riggins pivots between wistful soul and gritty drum breaks, giving ample room for his featured artists to shine. In 2017, Riggins, Glasper and Common earned an award together; their “Letter to the Free” (from director Ava DuVernay’s 13th documentary) won the Emmy® for Outstanding Original Music and Lyrics. Other featured upcoming performances at the Kimmel Center Cultural Campus include: Black Violin (October 27, 2018, Merriam Theater), Django Festival Allstars (November 3, 2018, Perelman Theater), Tom Segura (November 16-17, 2018, Merriam Theater), and PHILADANCO Choreographers on the Move (November 16-18, 2018, Perelman Theater).

  • Jazz and Radio in the United States: Mediation, Genre, and Patronage
    Jazz and Radio in the United States: Mediation, Genre, and Patronage Aaron Joseph Johnson Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Aaron Joseph Johnson All rights reserved ABSTRACT Jazz and Radio in the United States: Mediation, Genre, and Patronage Aaron Joseph Johnson This dissertation is a study of jazz on American radio. The dissertation's meta-subjects are mediation, classification, and patronage in the presentation of music via distribution channels capable of reaching widespread audiences. The dissertation also addresses questions of race in the representation of jazz on radio. A central claim of the dissertation is that a given direction in jazz radio programming reflects the ideological, aesthetic, and political imperatives of a given broadcasting entity. I further argue that this ideological deployment of jazz can appear as conservative or progressive programming philosophies, and that these tendencies reflect discursive struggles over the identity of jazz. The first chapter, "Jazz on Noncommercial Radio," describes in some detail the current (circa 2013) taxonomy of American jazz radio. The remaining chapters are case studies of different aspects of jazz radio in the United States. Chapter 2, "Jazz is on the Left End of the Dial," presents considerable detail to the way the music is positioned on specific noncommercial stations. Chapter 3, "Duke Ellington and Radio," uses Ellington's multifaceted radio career (1925-1953) as radio bandleader, radio celebrity, and celebrity DJ to examine the medium's shifting relationship with jazz and black American creative ambition.
