TERENCE BLANCHARD: FIRE SHUT UP IN MY BONES
–
April 26, 2024
Strathmore & Washington Performing Arts Present
TERENCE BLANCHARD with The E-Collective, Turtle Island Quartet & Andrew F. Scott
FIRE SHUT UP IN MY BONES: OPERA SUITE IN CONCERT
featuring Justin Austin & Adrienne Danrich
Fire Shut Up In My Bones, Blanchard’s second “opera in jazz,” is a cultural flashpoint that affirms opera and classical music as inclusive spaces. This concert production, a collaboration between Blanchard and the E-Collective, David Balakrishnan and his two-time Grammy-winning Turtle Island Quartet, and visual artist Andrew F. Scott, features excerpts from the opera performed by the composer, an ensemble, and two guest singers. Together, the music and video projections provide audiences with a deeper understanding of Blanchard’s artistic vision and the gravitational pull of the moment that he has created.
