Ledisi brings her acclaimed tribute to Dinah Washington to the Pops stage, expanded for Louisville with music by both Washington and Nina Simone, two artists who shaped the sound and spirit of American music. Drawing from her recent album For Dinah, produced by Christian McBride, Ledisi honors Washington’s fearless artistry and emotional depth while weaving in selections that reflect Simone’s intensity, independence, and musical range.Known for her ability to move fluidly between jazz, soul, R&B, and classical traditions, Ledisi approaches this repertoire with deep personal connection and expressive power. The program highlights songs that challenged conventions, gave voice to lived experience, and continue to influence generations of artists. Led by conductor Bob Bernhardt, this concert is both a tribute and a statement, celebrating legacy, representation, and the enduring impact of two singular voices through one of today’s most compelling performers.
