Fly Higher: Charlie Parker at 100

Fly Higher: Charlie Parker at 100 celebrates one of the most innovative and influential artists in modern musical history and examines his impact on pop, hip hop, rap, rock, and jazz. Acclaimed co-musical directors Rudresh Mahanthappa and Terri Lyne Carrington honor Charlie Parker's centennial year by showcasing his uncompromising musical joy, humor and beauty, mining his deep repertoire, and showcasing new, modern compositions. Rather than imitating the original, Fly Higher strives to forward the artform by developing new perspectives on tradition. Join us for this extraordinary musical tribute to an American master.
