Jazz Meets Hip Hop April 21, 2007

Presented as part of the Tri C Jazz Festival

From the website:"Featuring BILL RANSOM

For the fifth year, “Jazz Meets Hip-Hop, Part 5” gives festival goers jazz, with a little something extra. Under the musical direction of Cleveland’s own Bill Ransom, this unique performance is a creative fusion of old-school jazz with the contemporary rhythmic beats of a socially enlightened generation of music masters.

Under the musical direction of jazz drummer Bill Ransom, Harlem-born poet Sekou Sundiata is joined by DJ Mister RourKE and well-known Cleveland jazz artists for a new installment of this unique performance. The group will adapt a Winton Marsalis project just for this special JazzFest performance. Wildly popular, Jazz Meets Hip-Hop continues to appeal to the young and the young at heart."
