Critically-acclaimed pianist Kyle Walker is a strong advocate for social justice and equality who believes music can speak to social issues better than verbal language can.
Bach to BlackNotes juxtaposes some of the most well-known and respected keyboard music of J.S. Bach with wonderful music which has unfortunately fallen through the cracks of music history. Join Kyle on this exploration in history through a different lens.
