Hear about the extraordinary partnership between Black and Jewish artists and entrepreneurs whose shared creativity, resilience, and vision helped shape the soundtrack of America. Award-winning pianist and historian Joe Alterman, a 2026 Downbeat Magazine Critic's Choice rising artist, acclaimed jazz vocalist Karla Harris, and Joe's dynamic trio create a unique performance that blends unforgettable music with fascinating stories, bringing this little-known history to life.
