The concept of Ivory and Ebony-Symphony Meets Swing, is the incorporating of the European symphony orchestra to play both Classical music (Ivory) and predominantly Afro-American Jazz music (Ebony) – a reverse of the popular song (Ebony and Ivory) by Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder.
The objective is to introduce and expose the nation’s youth to seriously study a musical instrument, which can be used to play any type of music, thus changing an incorrect perception in the minds of our young people, who believe that the only instruments relevant to their experience are the guitar and drums.
