Clovernook Center Hosts Jazz Pianist Matthew Whitaker in Concert

Matthew Whitaker is an amazing jazz musician who was born blind. He will be here, performing a concert with his band, on Saturday, November 13 at The Metropolitan Club in Covington.

Matthew called us from his studio and provided his own music bed for our interview – totally unplanned and completely improvised.

Take a few minutes to listen and be inspired by this remarkable young man.
