New Harmonies Concert: Frederick James McCray	4/23/2010	4/23/2010	5:00PM	Park City Museum, 528 Main Street
The New Harmonies Concert Series continues with Frederick James McCray, Friday, April 23, at 5:00pm! The Smithsonian Institution’s New Harmonies Exhibit focuses on the broad range of musical styles and traditions that mirror our national diversity. This concert series will do the same, this time by featuring New Orleans Jazz Piano. By the age of 5, McCray was playing songs on the piano entirely by ear, having had no musical training. He studied piano and voice at Xavier University in New Orleans, and privately with jazz educator Ellis Marsalis and New Orleans’ jazz historian & musician, Danny Barker. McCray has played all over the world both solo and as a free-lance musician with different groups covering jazz, gospel, and rhythm & blues. Part lecture, part concert, you don’t want to miss McCray’s performance! The New Harmonies Concert Series takes place in the Park City Museum Store, is free to the public, and is presented in partnership with the Utah Humanities Council and Mountain Town Music.
