Carnegie Hall Citywide: Brandee Younger

Saturday, August 7, 2021 5 PM Brooklyn Museum
Brandee Younger by Erin Patrice O'Brien
Hear harp music in a fresh new way when composer, educator, and concert curator Brandee Younger plucks the strings in this performance, part of the Brooklyn Museum’s popular First Saturday program. Classical, jazz, soul, and funk are all part of Younger’s unique musical world, which includes collaborations with jazz luminaries Jack DeJohnette, Wycliffe Gordon, Charlie Haden, and Ravi Coltrane. In 2019, she performed in Quincy Jones and Steve McQueen’s concert series Soundtrack of America, and her composition “Hortense” was featured in Beyoncé’s Netflix concert-documentary Homecoming. Her eclectic style is featured on her new album Something Different, scheduled for release on August 13, 2021.
