Classical Pianist Anna Shelest
March is Women’s History Month and CapRadio’s Classical and Jazz Station (88.9 KXPR) is celebrating by featuring prominent female composers and performers who have made an impact on the Classical world. Today on Insight, Midday Classical Host Jennifer Reason introduces us to one such artist, Ukrainian-born pianist Anna Shelest.
Sacramento’s Hip Hop Open Mic ‘The Grid’
“Where culture connects.” That’s how the creative minds behind Sacramento’s hip-hop open mic describe their new project. The Grid happens the first Saturday of every month at the Digital Cafe inside the Nubian Family Marketplace. Performances range from some of Sacramento’s best known hip hop artists, to live painting exhibitions and community members picking up the mic for the first time, speaking their mind to a beat. The next hip hop open mic is this Saturday, March 7th from 2 to 4pm. Cam One, Jermaine Tilson aka j_crux and Flotivation created The Grid and joined us to talk about it.
