Back to the Roots – the Baron Arnold Quartett

A journey of discovery through the African American musical tradition

As part of his course on Black history, Christopher Forlini has invited the trombone player and educator Baron Arnold to come to our university. He will teach a class and play a concert on May 5 at 7:30 in Cafe Nerly; this concert will be an exploration of the African-American musical tradition and aesthetic. The drummer Genius Wesley (early 20s) is absolutely phenomenal – he has a style of drumming unique to the Bay Area and has been a professional musician since he was 14. He has already played with some real jazz legends (Kenny Garrett, Ravi Coltrane). May 5 is an opportunity to see him live in Erfurt.
