Hot Wrk Ensemble with Gwen Laster: Juneteenth Celebration

Award-winning saxophone and percussion trio, Hot Wrk Ensemble is pleased to partner with special guest artist Gwen Laster - jazz violinist, composer and Guggenheim Fellow - for this special Juneteenth concert sponsored by the Poughkeepsie Library at the Family Partnership Center. Concert features a new work by Laster, commissioned for Juneteenth. Hot Wrk deconstructs and “wrks out” concepts of traditional chamber music and the concert experience by engaging communities to interact with and partake in the creation process. Concerts include original works, jazz, classical, world, and popular styles. FREE through a grant from Arts MidHudson.
