Jacquelyne Silver: Keyboard Connections
1008 Wall Street, San Diego, 92037
Cost: $17 - $22
From the depths of the Delta to Carnegie Hall, the music of the blues is born from the heart and soul. Its influences run deep in America’s music, from jazz to rock and roll, right up to the Broadway stage. Jacquelyne Silver, born in St. Louis on the Mississippi River, was steeped in the lore of blues, ragtime, and early jazz as a child. Her father played ragtime on the riverboat clubs that grew up along the path between New Orleans northward. In this segment, Miss Silver will talk about and play blues, jazz, and ragtime, showing the paths of connection between them.
