Trio MôD’s powerful players integrate classical, jazz, gospel, and Native American styles to create original arrangements and tonal colors. This new eclectic ensemble of superb California musicians features Maquette Kuper, flute, alto flute; Deborah Pittman, clarinet and Native American flute; and vocalist Omari Tau, baritone. Original arrangements of spirituals and jazz tunes as well as Pittman’s Harlem-oriented trio arrangement “Peter in the Hood,” highlight the history and culture of Harlem Renaissance as featured in the exhibition “African American Art: Harlem Renaissance, Civil Rights Era and Beyond.”
