Donald Harrison
ft. Christian Scott
at Symphony Space
Today we are featuring footage from the legendary Donald “Big Chief” Harrison’s recent performance at Symphony Space in NYC featuring special guest, acclaimed trumpet innovator (and Donald’s nephew) Christian Scott. According to the venue, this was surprisingly the first concert Harrison headlined with his own band. As such Harrison and company took to the stage for many hours switching from jazz to funk, New Orleans to New York City and more. This particular piece closed out the first set with Harrison inviting a few very talented local music students to share the stage with himself and Christian Scott.
Also be sure to take a listen to the extensive recording projects which Scott and Harrison have performed together on.
