Béla Fleck has virtually reinvented the image and sound of the banjo through a remarkable legacy that has taken him all over the musical map. His May 4 concert, Rhythm, Raga & Rhapsody will celebrate the music of Fleck’s career, including his New York premiere of Rhapsody in Blue performed with an orchestra, conducted by Eric Jacobsen.
The multi-artist night also features My Bluegrass Heart, tabla master and World Music Institute Honorary Board member Zakir Hussain, pianist Bruce Hornsby, and woodwind player Anat Cohen.
