Event Details

The arts at their core are about telling stories. Jasmine Pigott, tuba, is exploring multiple art forms in her program "Visions" combining her writing of spoken word with composition for solo tuba.

Each of the pieces in this 45 minute program tells a story--stories with themes of overcoming adversity, fighting inner-demons in mental health battles, and navigating this world as a Black woman in America. 

 

Jasmine “Jazzie” Pigott is a tuba player, composer, podcaster, and writer based in Baltimore, MD. Believing in the power of representation, Jasmine is a solo performer on a mission to empower the next generation of musicians of color. She has placed in numerous solo competitions, including first place in Peabody’s Yale Gordon Competition and bronze in the Leonard Falcone Tuba Student Competition, and she released her EP, Revolution, in July 2022.

Jasmine is a co-founder and member of the Chromatic Brass Collective. Outside of music, Jasmine ran a podcast Harmony and Healing, centered around health and wellness for musicians from July 2021 to September 2022. She holds degrees from Ithaca College (B.M.) and Michigan State University (M.M.) and is working on her DMA in tuba performance at the Peabody Conservatory at Johns Hopkins.
