Not Just Another Evening

Soundcheck | May 3, 2010
A triumvirate of talent stops by on Soundcheck today, veteran choreographer Bill T. Jones, sultry singer Cassandra Wilson and up-and-coming composer and violinist Daniel Bernard Roumain. The artists are collaborating on a project called "Another Evening," featuring the Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company, at Aaron Davis Hall beginning May 30. Also, composer Daron Hagen visits to tell us about his new opera "Vera of Las Vegas," and we’ll hear a bit of it by singer Patricia Dell.
