KCPT Media Release
Jazz at the Gem on KCPT Celebrates Josephine BakerAirs Thursday May 24 at 8 p.m. (KANSAS CITY)—On December 16, 2006, music and dance joined forces at Kansas City's Gem Theatre, saluting the life and legacy of Josephine Baker. Like the Billie Holiday tribute in 2005, KCPT's cameras were there to record the event, which featured vocalist Nnenna Freelon and dancers from the Alvin Ailey 2 troupe. You can see highlights from this memorable night in an hour-long special Jazz at The Gem: A Tribute to Josephine Baker coming to KCPT on Thursday May 24 at 8 p.m. Following individual sets by each, a joint finale of "What a Little Moonlight Can Do" brought jazz and movement together for a rousing finale. Production funding for Jazz At the Gem has been generously provided by American Century Investments and the Copaken Family Foundation. KCPT provides programming and services that entertain, educate and enrich the Kansas City community. For more information about KCPT's programs and services go to www.KCPT.org.
