THE STONE RESIDENCIES
A TRIBUTE TO CONNIE CROTHERS
APR 29-MAY 2
We celebrate the life and legacy of the great pianist Connie Crothers on the 85th anniversary of her birth. A virtuosic improviser and composer with a truly original sound, her importance in the world of improvised music cannot be overstated. Powerfully committed to honest self-expression, Crothers forged her own path, living her life just as she played the piano: intensely, fearlessly, lovingly.

“When we create music, it’s always from love” —Connie Crothers

Curated by Deep Friendship: The Connie Crothers Legacy Project—Virg Dzurinko, Carol Liebowitz, Andrea Wolper
