Our opening concert features a jazz big band and vocalist Shelene Huey-Booker performing interpretations of classical music by Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn, Ellington’s long-time arranger. Shelene’s soulful talent and style will shine in Black, Brown, and Beige, Ellington’s own suite inspired by classical orchestral and sacred music.
Join us for the classical side of Duke Ellington and his Big Band.
Shelene Huey-Booker, a California Bay Area native, was born into a family filled with musical gifts and founded in love. She’s on a mission to share the message that the love of Christ is real through her music and other ministries. Shelene’s motivation in ministry is to give hope and inspiration to those who feel there is none.
