What passion this artist has, his fingers on the keys looked as if they were in fast motion. It was unbelievable. Create an opportunity to see a show at the Grammy Museum or take a tour it is one not to be missed.

Quotes & Highlights

Description

Blending together a rich amalgam of blues, Caribbean, roots, pop and jazz influences, it's not an exaggeration to say that Henry Butler is a brilliant musician. The GRAMMY Museum welcomes him for a unique multimedia experience, discussion and performance.

Although blinded by glaucoma since birth, Butler knows no limitations. As a pianist, he is a master of musical diversity, and Butler's music is as excitingly eclectic as that of his New Orleans birthplace. As a photographer, he's world-class, with his work displayed in exhibitions across the United States and a documentary about it, Dark Light: The Art Of Blind Photographers, currently showing on HBO.

Hear Butler, along with GRAMMY Museum Executive Director Bob Santelli as moderator, discuss Butler's commitment to constantly push himself in new directions and why he can't be pigeonholed.
