Shannon White (l) and Charles Williams (r)

Photographed in black and white, apprentice Shannon White and master artist Charles Williams sit behind electric keyboards during a performance. Left, Shannon White appears: She is a middle aged Black woman with straight black hair that barely meets her shoulders. She wears a patterned long sleeved shirt, black flowy pants, and black high heels. She sits behind a piano with folded arms. Right, and in the background from Shannon sits Charles Williams: A middle aged Black man with salt and pepper hair. He wears a long sleeved dark v-neck style shirt, and light colored pants with brown shoes. He sits behind an electric keyboard.
