The Gathering is an ongoing series presented by the Berklee Institute of Jazz and Gender Justice. Events are open to the greater Berklee community and public, and feature performances, guest lectures, workshops, and discussions—all with gender and racial equity as a guiding principle.
This week, we welcome keyboardist and composer Rachel Z. Rachel Z has a long history of award-winning performances in the worlds of jazz and rock. She cowrote the Grammy-winning song "Tokyo Blue" with saxophonist Najee. In addition to her 13 albums as bandleader and her work in internationally-acclaimed bands such as Steps Ahead, Vertú, the Omar Hakim Experience, and OZmosys, she has played and toured with artists like Wayne Shorter (on the Grammy-winning album High Life), Stanley Clarke, Marcus Miller, Terri Lyne Carrington, Al Di Meola, and Regina Carter. Rachel Z came to worldwide prominence in the rock world in the Peter Gabriel concert films Growing Up: Live and Still Growing Up: Live & Unwrapped.
