April 6, 2026 marks the centennial of NEA Jazz Master Dr. Randy Weston, and this night invites you into the powerful world he created. Weston’s music connects jazz to African rhythm, history, and spirit, blending elegance, groove, and deep cultural pride into a sound that feels both intimate and expansive. From meditative melodies to driving, trance-like rhythms, his work was meant to be felt as much as heard. This centennial celebration honors a cultural warrior whose music continues to bring people together through joy, memory, and movement. PERFORMANCE LINEUP T.K.

Recorded in Prague with five Czech musicians, the first volume captures spring's emotions through carefully curated works by Ellington, Strayhorn, Dameron, Brubeck, and more. Born in England and raised in Australia, Hetty honed her craft in Melbourne's vibrant jazz scene before joining acclaimed Australian multi-instrumentalist James Morrison's touring bands, including being the featured vocalist for his award-winning symphonic concert 'The A to Z of Jazz' which was performed with eight symphonies worldwide. She has released eleven albums, featured at premier festivals across Europe, Asia, and Australasia, and continues to tour extensively. Now based in Paris, Hetty brings a clarion tone, impeccable timing, and a razor-sharp wit to everything she performs.
