Bryan Carter's "Rustin in Renaissance"

Jazz at Lincoln Center welcomes 2024 Grammy nominee Bryan Carter to The Appel for his first season concert performance. The Tony Award winner, drummer, composer, and vocalist presents his four-movement meditation on the legacy of singer and activist Bayard Rustin.

A pivotal figure of the Civil Rights Movement who served as a mentor to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Rustin was also a vocalist who moonlighted as a recording artist. Throughout his storied career, he persevered through unrelenting discrimination as a queer man of color.

Carter leads the Jazz at Pride Orchestra—his acclaimed 31-piece ensemble—across different musical eras, exploring the complete lineage of Black American music through the ethos of a jazz musician. Expect an evening of stylistically diverse songs and arrangements featuring a talented roster of musicians who celebrate Rustin’s life and legacy.

A Beautiful Noise, The Neil Diamond Musical

“Created in collaboration with Neil Diamond himself, A Beautiful Noise is the uplifting true story of how a kid from Brooklyn became a chartbusting, show-stopping American rock icon. With 120 million albums sold, a catalogue of classics like “America,” “Forever in Blue Jeans,” and “Sweet Caroline,” an induction into the Songwriters and Rock and Roll Halls of Fame, a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, and sold-out concerts around the world that made him bigger than Elvis, Neil Diamond’s story was made to shine on Broadway, where the biggest stars tell their story.

Like Jersey Boys and The Carole King Musical before it, A Beautiful Noise The Neil Diamond Musical is an inspiring, exhilarating, energy-filled musical memoir, that tells the untold true story of how America’s greatest hitmaker became a star, set to the songs that defined his career.”
