SUMMARY:Richard Hill - Jazz Cultural Voices
DESCRIPTION:PNC Arts Alive Jazz Cultural Voices Series is proud to present distinguished bassist and composer Richard Hill Jr. to the Clef Club stage. Richard has been a vital force in the Philadelphia music scene since his youth. A 2014 Clef Club of Jazz and Performing Arts award winner for bass\, his impressive performance career includes collaborations with jazz luminaries like Wynton Marsalis\, Nicholas Payton\, Frank Foster\, Jackie McLean\, Bobby Zankel\, and Sumi Tonooka\, alongside artists such as Robert Glasper\, Bilal\, Sharon Katz and the Peace Train\, and Mickey Roker. His recording credits further showcase his versatility\, featuring work with Javon Jackson\, Jill Scott\, Touch of Jazz Studios\, and the Korean Broadcasting Network. \nBringing his deep musical passion to Delaware\, Richard continues to perform actively with local artists including Gerald Chavis\, Tony Smith\, and Fostina Dixon. His significant contributions extend beyond performance; he served as the resident composing artist at Philadelphia’s prestigious Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts. Currently\, Richard channels his expertise and dedication into music education passionately guiding the next generation of young musicians. \nOne of Hill’s early influences was the great 20th century giant Billy Strayhorn\, “whose use of melodies really touches your soul.” And one of his first professional jobs as a musician was connecting with the music of another great – he worked at Philadelphia’s Annenberg Theatre in a production of Ain’t Misbehavin’\, a musical based on the life and music of Fats Waller. \nHill’s current – and most personal – project is the dance of diversity\, a suite that employs the “rhythms of the various micro communities in Wilmington.” Quoting the great Charlie Parker\, Hill feels that “now is the time” for it. One of his great rewards is “seeing my past students becoming the light.” \nDon’t miss this special night with Richard Hill Jr. and witness his incredible talent\, original sounds\, and deep passion for jazz in an evening that celebrates creativity\, community\, and connection. It’s sure to be a soulful\, inspiring performance that reminds us why live jazz in Philly is something truly special. \nGet Tickets
