June Bug Jazz Thursdays: Rafik Williamson Quartet at Transmitter Park
June 6, 2019 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
This June the North Brooklyn Parks Alliance is partnering with the Jazz Foundation of America for the first time to bring free jazz to your neighborhood park.
Every Thursday throughout the month, you can enjoy a sunset concert as part of the Jazz Foundation’s Gig Fund, a program that creates much-needed work for accomplished musicians and brings free concerts to underserved audiences across the country.
In Transmitter our ears will be graced by the Rafik Williamson Quartet. Rafik Williamson has been a professional pianist for 58 years, having played with greats like Hank Mobley, Lou Donaldson, Archie Shepp, and Pharoah Sanders. Rafik has toured the U.S., Canada, the Caribbean, and Japan. He is an alumnus of the Brooklyn Conservatory of Music.
