Notable authors, artists, and conversation starters explore themes from ancient history to current events through interactive dialogues, stimulating talks, panels, performances, and films.
Drawing on the musical traditions of their homelands in India, Africa, Europe and America, four world-renowned musicians discuss and weave a global tapestry for the new millennium. ASPADA, comprised of George Brooks (saxophone), Kai Eckhardt (bass), Osam Ezzeldin (keyboards), and Selvaganesh Vinayakram (percussion), will perform original music and describe the rhythmic, melodic, and harmonic components that form each composition.
They will pay particular attention to the rhythmic language of south India and the role that it plays in the structure of their compositions and improvisation. This is an extraordinary opportunity to observe musicians from diverse musical backgrounds conversing in a new musical language.
Free, but RSVP required.
