\u201cCentral Brooklyn Jazz Consortium develops programming for the Brooklyn Jazz Hall of Fame and recognizes the importance of music in the lives of African Americans,\u201d stated Chairman Clarence Mosley Jr. \u201cWe deliberated on incorporating several themes into a deserving cultural celebration. The\u00a0hall of fame ceremony communicates the message of freedom and Black folks\u2019 spiritual connection to Africa.\u201d Randy Weston joins jazz greats, Lena Horne, Herbie Mann, Max Roach, and others in the Brooklyn Jazz Hall of Fame. Membership is based on several factors, including the social impact of the musician. Weston was an advocate of the African origins of music, and the rhythms he used became a component of jazz. Weston\u2019s induction compliments the program\u2019s Juneteenth and Black music themes.<\/p>\n

The event is is presented by Central Brooklyn Jazz Consortium in partnership with RestorationART and supported by NYC Council Member Robert E. Cornegy Jr. Media sponsors are Our Time Press and Jazz Promo Services.
