The Urban Fifth Presents: A Roy Hargrove Celebration (A Juneteenth Presentation Honoring a Jazz Legend)

  • Glen Foerd 5001 Grant Avenue Philadelphia, PA, 19114 United States (map)

Join us for a powerful morning of music and tribute as The Urban Fifth, a collective of young all-stars from Philadelphia, led by Grammy Award-winning trombonist Jasyn Brazoban, presents "A Roy Hargrove Celebration". This Special Juneteenth performance honors the enduring legacy of late, great Roy Hargrove--a visionary trumpeter whose sound bridged Jazz, Soul, Hip-Hop, and the Black American experience.

With deep roots in the cultural traditions that Hargrove championed, The Urban Fifth channels his spirit through bold improvisation, rich harmonies, and fearless groove. Expect a dynamic program that reimagines his classics, celebrates Black musical excellence, and speaks to the present moment.

This performance is proudly made possible by Local 77's Philadelphia Musicians Union and the Music Performance Trust Fund in collaboration with Glen Foerd.
