Q&A with curator/writer, Daniella Brito. 7:30 PM, Friday, March 20$15 suggested donation✨Sista's Place456 Nostrand Ave, Brooklyn, 11216Join Alfreda’s Cinema and Sistas' Place for a special evening honoring the extraordinary life and legacy of Mary Lou Williams—one of the most visionary yet often overlooked architects of jazz history.A child prodigy turned master pianist, prolific composer, and groundbreaking arranger, Williams helped shape the Kansas City swing sound, composed hundreds of works, and mentored a generation of innovators who transformed the music. Her Harlem apartment famously became a gathering place for the pioneers of bebop, including Thelonious Monk, whom she championed and supported during his formative years.Featuring live performance footage and storytelling, A Song for Mary Lou Williams reflects on her profound influence, from the blues and big band era to bebop and beyond, and honors her role as a cultural force who expanded the possibilities of jazz while navigating the industry as a Black woman in segregated America.Come gather with us as we celebrate the enduring brilliance, mentorship, and sonic imagination of a true architect of modern music.   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/f222a2b0-2098-11f1-8ce5-afcd59d33ab9-rimg-w840-h740-dc2a353f-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/f2546110-2098-11f1-9b6f-83c9a10815c8-rimg-w586-h740-dcf4f4f4-gmir.jpg
