We are Stoked! This is the first in a series of listening sessions and live interviews discussing and experiencing life altering musical recordings with music connoisseurs. Gene invites a fellow music traveler into The Annex to share core recordings that shaped their musical journey via conversation and the gigantic hi-fi. These sessions will be recorded for a forthcoming podcast.
Our first presenter is Vee Popat, laying out “10 records that changed his life”. He is a sax player as as well the Director of the Fine Arts Center of Greenville County Schools. He holds a B.A. in Music Education from Virginia Tech, an M.M. in Jazz Pedagogy from the University of Miami (FL) Frost School of Music, and an M.S. in Educational Administration from the University of Scranton. Vee started as Director of the FAC in 2019 and was named as Greenville County Schools’ Administrator of the Year in 2022.
VEE’s list will cover goodies like Tower of Power, and Jaco to Duke Ellington. Join us here to find out the rest of the story.
Seating is limited so RSVP before spaces fill up.
