SUMMARY:Music at Grace Farms | Andromeda Turre

Supported by the 2023 Jazz Road Creative Residencies Grant from SouthArts\, funded by Doris Duke and Andrew W. Mellon Foundations\, as well as a 2024 Support for Artists Grant from the New York State Council on the Arts\, From the Earth exemplifies Turre’s vision to use music as a vehicle for empathy\, awareness\, and social transformation. \nThe concert schedule is as follows: \n4 – 4:30 pm | Q&A and Tea with Grace Farms Music Director Marcus G.

Raised within the legacy of jazz’s foremost voices—immersed in the presence of legends like Dizzy Gillespie\, Max Roach\, Ray Charles and Wynton Marsalis—Turre absorbed invaluable insights into jazz’s artistry and legacy\, observing their mastery firsthand. As the daughter of trombonist Steve Turre and cellist Akua Dixon\, this lineage does more than inform her artistry; it offers a foundation from which she redefines boundaries\, bridging heritage with innovation. Educated at Boston Conservatory and Berklee College of Music\, Turre bridges classical\, contemporary\, and theatrical frameworks into jazz\, creating a voice uniquely her own. \nTurre has performed across 17 countries\, captivating audiences with her powerful\, emotionally resonant performances. She is also an accomplished composer for film\, television\, video games\, and theater. In addition to her artistic achievements\, Turre is a Cornell University-certified Diversity & Inclusion consultant\, working with arts organizations\, schools\, and municipalities since 2007. She fosters dialogue and cross-cultural understanding through the arts. \nAmong her honors\, Turre received the 2024 Arts Award for Advancing Equity from Arts Westchester\, 2024 Global Music Awards Silver Medal for Jazz for her album From the Earth and she is currently nominated for three 2025 World Entertainment Awards for Best Jazz Artist\, Best Jazz Album (From the Earth) and Best Social Awareness Song (Cryosphere). \nMusic at Grace Farms\nMusic at Grace Farms invites our global community of visitors\, musicians\, and creators to share in a unique experience at the intersection of sound\, artistry\, nature\, and intentionally designed spaces. \nCurated by our Music Director\, Marcus G. Miller\, each seasonal performance demonstrates how music and space enhance one another.Whether listening to violins drifting over the meadows during our outdoor summer music series\, dancing together to the rhythms of a world-class flamenco guitarist\, or celebrating the holidays with a festive choral concert\, Music at Grace Farms offers an exceptional live music experience.Every event is crafted to foster connection\, making music not just something to hear\, but something to feel and share.
