Everything is Everything: The Music of Donny Hathaway
Monday, May 13 at 6:30 pm
Donny Hathaway (1945 – 1979) gifted us with a catalog of music that is as vital today as when the songs were first recorded. Ahead of the Apollo premiere of Twisted Melodies, a powerful play honoring the artistic legacy and personal struggles of singer and composer Donny Hathaway, songwriter and musician Gordon Chambers leads an exploration into Hathaway’s music and timeless influence.
