🎷 The Harlem Jazz Series Presents: T.K. Blue🎷
We're thrilled to announce that the legendary saxophonist and flautist T.K. Blue (Talib Kibwe) will grace the stage at the Harlem Jazz Series on May 22, 2026! Born Eugene Rhynie in the Bronx to Trinidadian and Jamaican parents, T.K. Blue has spent decades weaving together the musical threads of the African diaspora—blending hard bop sophistication with Caribbean rhythms, calypso grooves, and pan-African melodies. With over 85 recordings to his name and mentorship from jazz giants like Jimmy Heath, Frank Foster, and Billy Taylor, Blue's artistry transcends borders and generations.
His three-year collaboration with South African piano master Abdullah Ibrahim deepened his commitment to pan-African musical expression, a vision that continues to define his work today. Whether he's delivering hard-driving bebop lines on saxophone, exploring lyrical passages on flute, or incorporating the kalimba into his sonic palette, T.K. Blue creates music that honors the past while speaking powerfully to the present. This is more than a performance—it's a celebration of jazz as a living, breathing connection across continents and cultures.
Don't miss this rare opportunity to experience one of jazz's most important pan-African voices live in Harlem! Mark your calendars for May 22, 2026.

“FIVE SESSIONS…A War in Therapy”
A RAW AND EXPLOSIVE NEW YORK THEATRICAL EVENT THAT CHALLENGES THE LIMITS OF THERAPY AND JUSTICE
“FIVE SESSIONS…A War in Therapy”–, a gripping new play by the playwright&nbsp; (JS/MSW) Jaime Estades. Set in present-day New York City, this intense psychological drama confronts audiences with urgent questions about systemic injustice, and the limits of institutional care.
Over the course of five charged therapy sessions, the audience is drawn into a confined space where two individuals collide: a recent graduate therapist with a privilege background–trained with clinical tools and good intentions but non-experiential, and a Latino building superintendent, labor organizer, and a man on the edge, shaped by grief, exploitation, and systemic neglect. “FIVE SESSIONS…A War in Therapy”—it is a theatrical confrontation. It is a necessary one.Production Details:
