The Sound of New York
Tuesdays in October
Every Tuesday evening, at 21:00 (CEST), Stingray DJAZZ presents an unprecedented episode of The Sound of New York, an exploration of the musical universe of a new generation of New York artists. Of diverse origins and all having a unique history and baggage, these musicians gave birth to new sounds that in turn influence the music scene of the entire world. This new generation of artists combines sounds from past and present, interacts with a range of other artistic forms, and plays with many influences. In October, meet singer and pianist Gerald Clayton, drummer Damion Reid, and saxophone player Greg Osby.
