The series opens on Sunday, September 17, with the violin and piano duo of Regina Carter and Xavier Davis, who last performed on the Athenaeum series in 2005. Hailed as the foremost jazz violinist of her generation, Regina Carter’s quest for beauty combined with her passion for excellence did not escape the attention of the MacArthur Foundation, which awarded her a prestigious “genius grant” fellowship. She is also a recipient of a Doris Duke Artist Award, has been named an NEA Jazz Master, and is a three-time Pulitzer Prize jurist. She tours worldwide with her own group and has appeared with such performers as Wynton Marsalis, Kenny Barron, Ray Brown, Mary J. Blige, Chucho Valdés, Billy Joel, Dolly Parton, and Omara Portuondo.Part of the Athenaeum's Jazz at Scripps Research series.Related links:Athenaeum Music and Arts Library: website | Instagram | Facebook
