Academy Award-winning legend Morgan Freeman joins us on stage to introduce this soul-stirring journey through the heart of the Mississippi Delta, where the Blues was born. Then the Symphonic Blues Experience begins. Multimedia cinematic imagery with Freeman's captivating narration, masterful performances by Blues artists from Ground Zero Blues Club, and sweeping symphonic arrangements performed by a chamber orchestra, guide the audience through a rich exploration of the Delta's profound impact on global music, telling the story of how this unique region shaped not only the blues but also rock, gospel, and other popular genres. This immersive experience highlights the region's enduring spirit and the pivotal role of Ground Zero Blues Club, co-founded by Mr. Freeman, in Clarksdale, Mississippi-a sacred ground for Blues preservation and a living testament to its power. Click HERE for artist's website. LU Students attend for FREE, click for more info.
