Anthony Davis' score for X: The Life and Times of Malcolm X, is suffused with  his personal compositional style that ranges from Richard Wagner to Miles Davis. Some of Detroit's finest musicians, including violinist Velda Kelly, multi-reed player Marcus Elliot, trombonist Vincent Chandler, and double bassist Marion Hayden, tell us what excites them about playing this music, and the importance of presenting X in Detroit.
