The New York area is home to numerous thriving Berklee alumni. The evening promises performances by many of these shining stars, by solo and group acts, both acoustic and electric, in a variety of genres of music. Among the performers: jazz vocalist Tiné Bruhn '01 with pianist Daniela Schächter '02 and bassist Marco Panascia '02; pop/rock singer/songwriter Brooke Fox '98; r&b/soul vocalist Sherma '94; singer/songwriter Mollie Bennett '94, and others.
Livingston Taylor will host the event, and will end the evening's festivities by performing a few of his own songs. A prolific singer/songwriter, Taylor serves on the faculty at Berklee, where he teaches the popular course "Stage Performance Techniques." This event promises an evening of exceptional music. The diversity of musical styles featured reflects the curriculum at Berklee, which encompasses all genres of contemporary music.
