About this Event
Join this masterclass with artist Dwight Jones, an award-nominated, Barbadian-born, Toronto-based musical creative and multi-instrumentalist improviser whose work is rooted in sonic exploration and immersive soundscapes shaped by Caribbean roots and modern influences. The session will focus on navigating the modern music industry from the perspectives of both creators and listeners and is open not only to musicians but to all consumers of music, with discussion centered on how individual choices shape the music ecosystem.
As part of KUUMBA 365, a year-long initiative celebrating Black cultures and creative practices, Dwight Jones, Larnell Lewis, and Dennis Passley will perform in KUUMBA 365: Sounds of Blackness at The Fleck at Harbourfront Centre Theatre on February 6 at 8:00 PM.
