Ledisi Sings Nina
Mann Music Center 5201 Parkside Ave, Philadelphia, PA, United StatesOn July 22, Ledisi, the New Orleans-born and Oakland-raised singer, and The Philadelphia Orchestra pay tribute to the legendary Nina Simone with a live performance of the album Ledisi Sings Nina.
Ledisi Sings Nina balances upbeat, big-band energy with atmospheric balladry, and an attention to historic detail that succeeds in updating the music for a modern hip-hop/R&B era. With the prowess of Ledisi’s voice, the artistry of The Philadelphia Orchestra, and the messages of Simone’s music, this performance is sure to speak to a generation facing the same harsh challenges and bitter struggles of the 1960s.
