Featured in Carnegie Hall’s United in Sound: America at 250 festival, the game-changing Kronos Quartet presents a semi-staged, multisensory exploration of the histories of Indigenous, Gullah-Geechee, and Chinese American communities in the United States. The first panel of this musical triptych features the visceral, gripping, and poignant artistry of electric Apache violinist, vocalist, and composer Laura Ortman. The second panel highlights connections between Western African and American cultures nearly lost to history, centering on Lorenzo Dow Turner’s Amelia’s Song, a New York premiere by Charlton Singleton, and more, featuring Grammy-winning percussionist Quentin E. Baxter. Pipa virtuoso Wu Man and other guests join in the triptych’s final panel, featuring new music by Dai Wei, personal histories of Chinese Americans who expanded civil and immigrant rights in San Francisco, and more.
