The Marcus Shelby Orchestra will perform a special Black History Month Program featuring music from their latest CD release "Soul of the Movement: Meditations on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.", and music from their previous releases "Harriet Tubman" and "Port Chicago". The 15 piece Marcus Shelby Orchestra is based in San Francisco and has made the Down Beat Rising Star polls 2 times (Best Big Band, Best Arranger, and Best Composer) and their release "Soul of the Movement" reached #2 on the jazz radio charts. The program will also feature excerpts from "Black, Brown, and Beige", Duke Ellington's perennial 1943 composition about African American history.
