Classic Black is more than a performer—it's an educational platform celebrating Black classical voices. Created by Ric'key Pageot in collaboration with Crewest Studio and Arterial, this project shines a spotlight on composers and performers often underrepresented in classical circles. Pageot, a Montreal-born pianist and accordionist, has graced stages worldwide, including four world tours with Madonna, and he is a respected Steinway Artist. In partnership with Dessy Di Lauro, as Parlor Social, they blend neo-ragtime and speakeasy-soul to create a unique live experience. This page highlights the artist, discography, and upcoming tour information to help fans secure their seats with ease.
