Acclaimed violist Hsin-Yun Huang joins Wu Man, one of the world’s leading pipa players, for the world premiere of Silkroad composer Lei Liang’s Mother’s Songs (commissioned by Rockport Music) and “Strings of Souls,” a compelling program that reflects the Chinese origins of the artists. |
The Grammy Award-winning musical ensemble Silkroad, led by Artistic Director Rhiannon Giddens, performs Phoenix Rising. With four major new commissions by an amazing amalgamation of Silkroad artists — Shawn Conley, Sandeep Das, Maeve Gilchrist, and Kaoru Watanabe — plus works from their storied history reimagined for today, the program integrates Giddens’ unique worldview with the Ensemble’s collective experience during the pandemic. Program also includes new arrangements by Rhiannon Giddens, Colin Jacobsen, Edward Pérez, and Mazz Swift.
