Lectures

Tami offers virtual and live presentations to audiences of all ages.   

In today's world, representation in the Arts is perhaps more important than ever before. Classical Music is not one-dimensional, but multi-faceted, reflecting diverse perspectives and experiences that shape our past, present, and future.  Although frequently overlooked, African-American composers have generously contributed to the landscape of Classical Music.  Their work, much like soul food, is often seasoned with flavors of African-American culture and history. Classical Music Meets Soul Food provides a starting point for anyone interested in exploring music of African-American composers.  What is the history behind their work?  What music styles influence their writing?  Who are the composers and where is their music found?  What performance practices apply to their work? This lecture answers these questions and more, inviting everyone to come to the table and enjoy the rich legacy of African-American composers.  

Artists spend countless hours in the practice room perfecting their craft so they can walk onstage and deliver spellbinding performances.  In the practice room, they plant the seeds of imagination, but how can these seeds grow to become a successful live project?  In this presentation, Tami shares about her experience launching The Legacy Show- from inception to seasons of national tours.  She provides insight about the modern music industry, marketing, and more.  The sky is the limit if artists know how to get there!
