Who is Charles Mingus? JALC Jazz for Young People

  • Jazz at Lincoln Center (map)

These fascinating presentations for grownups extrapolate from Jazz at Lincoln Center’s Jazz For Young People concerts, an institution since the early 1990s that seamlessly aligns with JALC’s educational mission. Who is Charles Mingus? (Rose Theater, Oct. 22, 2022) is a centennial celebration of the great composer-bassist-bandleader (1922–1979), whose sophisticated, socially conscious, theatrical, deeply emotional music has a colorful, playful nature that will pull in young listeners, hosted by award-winning bassist Endea Owens.
