Lisa Hilton, composer and American jazz pianist, returns to Weill Recital Hall to debut new compositions recorded with this band of jazz musicians. Hilton’s compositions explore jazz and blues alongside classical and modernist ideas - fueled by the inspiration of past composers Count Basie, George Gershwin, Robert Johnson or Chopin. The concept behind their new release Chalkboard Destiny is that our culture is continually being reshaped and creatively revised.
