MORE ON DAVÓNE TINES ‘QUEERING THE MASS’

Pioneering bass-baritone and creator Davóne Tines queers the catholic mass by transforming it into a non-denominational structure for dealing with human problems. About the program, The New Yorker says “In a matter of minutes, we had traversed multiple centuries and worlds, yet all the music was filtered through the taut resonance of one voice: a timbre at once grand and fraught, potent and vulnerable.” Join Davóne along with his band THE TRUTH (John Bitoy, piano and Khari Lucas, sound artist and electric bass) as they weave classical, gospel, baroque, jazz, and opera into a journey of personal reckoning.
