MAM Department presents the Secret Handshake Trio - Music for Modern Times in Longy's Pickman Hall

History has shown that urgent new music has always surfaced at times of great historic social or political changes. Bebop emerged in the post WWII atomic age and free jazz expression reached its heights during the Civil Rights Era.
