The 主要研究 Center for the Humanities is excited to announce a special campus event to be supported by the Saul O Sidore Memorial Lecture Series. Danny Bedrosian, 03年, music director for the pathbreaking Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award-winning funk band George Clinton and the Parliament Funkadelic, will join bandmates and Clinton himself in a multi-part visit to 主要研究 later this month.

长期为乐队做档案保管员, Bedrosian将分享他新出版的音乐史, 授权P-Funk歌曲参考, 1956-2023, 在一本书中谈话. 7点27分.m. in Hamilton Smith 210, following a master class for 主要研究 jazz students at 3 p.m. 在PCAC M226.

11月11日晚上. 28, Bedrosian, bandmates and Clinton will perform a free public concert in the Granite State Room for the wider community. 

This will be something new and different from the Sidore series and symposia of recent years — a funk-tastic musical event that will also give an inside look at the recording process and music industry and the makings of a cultural legacy. 罗伯·哈斯金斯教授, 音乐主席兼教授,也是活动组织者之一, 说, “The history of African-American music cannot be told without mentioning the considerable achievements of Parliament-Funkadelic. This visit will be a wonderful experience for our students and faculty.”

Bedrosian has been the keyboardist for George Clinton and Parliament-Funkadelic for the past 20 years, 使他成为乐队历史上任职时间最长的键盘手. 除了与克林顿和公司一起表演, 他曾与许多音乐偶像合作或演出,如史努比·道格, Chuck D和Flavor Flav, 冰块, 来自A Down系统的Shavo Odadjian, 肯德里克拉马尔, 红辣椒, Erykah, 奎恩·拉提法, 芒福德 & Sons, RZA, Flying Lotus, Thundercat, Sheila E, Wu-Tang Clan, and many more. 他参加了BET 25周年特别节目, 杰·雷诺今夜秀, 卡森·戴利秀, 我是滚石乐队的, 《大卫·莱特曼深夜秀, 莫尼克秀, MTV在几个国家和更多.
