SUMMARY:Exploring Peru through Song and Dance
DESCRIPTION:Explore Peru’s rich history and culture through its songs\, dances\, and chamber music in this concert for string quartet and voice! Hear the yearning of oppressed miners seeking freedom as Peruvian tenor Luis Galvez sings the original version of “El condor pasa” by Daniel Alomía Robles. Learn how Chabuca Granda combined European\, Andean\, and – controversially – African influences and hear her vals criollo\, or “Creole waltz\,” titled “La flor de la canela” (“The Cinnamon Flower”)\, a beautiful and timeless classic. Hear the longing of Peruvians abroad yearning for their homeland in César Míro’s “Todos vuelven” “Everybody Returns”). Learn about the Afro-Peruvian song and dance Hatajo de Negritos\, a Christian spiritual tradition that sustained spirits and fostered hope and resistance to slavery. Works by Armando Guevara Ochoa\, Sadiel Cuentas\, Kike Pinto Cárdenas\, and more round out an exciting and uplifting program! \nWith Luis Galvez\, voice; Caitlin Edwards and Rasa Mahmoudian\, violins; Jay Pike\, viola; and Tom Clowes\, cello. \nThis event is free and open to the public. \nThis program is partially supported by a grant from the Illinois Arts Council Agency.

SUMMARY:African-American Women Composers: Looking Back & Looking Forward | New Music Chicago Impromptu Fest!
DESCRIPTION:Crossing Borders Music participates in the New Music Chicago Impromptu Fest 2019!\nHonor the past and celebrate the future of African-American women composers as we share their unique perspectives and beautiful music in this concert for string quartet and piano.\nFlorence Price was a trailblazing composer who lived on Chicago’s South Side. Her Five Folksongs in Counterpoint draw on both traditional spirituals and academic musical training from the New England Conservatory\, which she managed to attend only by overcoming a ban on African-American admissions. The granddaughter of slaves and a graduate of Juilliard\, Undine Smith-Moore’s Afro-American Suite similarly draws on spirituals as well as the composer’s formal music training to create unique settings of popular melodies. Elizabeth Baker’s Rain on the Cotton Fields explores the juxtaposition of African spiritual traditions emphasizing connection with the land with enslaved African Americans’ forced participation in worship services as performing musicians. Each movement of Brittany J Green’s Portraits draws inspiration from a different poem by the composer’s grandmother\, exploring themes of longing\, realization\, uneasiness\, reassurance\, solemnity\, exposure\, bleakness\, and beauty. Jordyn Davis’ What Have You Done (Who Are You?) rounds out a captivating program. \nWith Marianne Parker\, piano; Rasa Mahmoudian and Kyle Dickson\, violins; Sixto Franco\, viola; and Tom Clowes\, cello. \nTickets are available online. $10 student tickets available. \nThis program made possible in part by a grant from the American Music Project (americanmusicproject.net).\n\nThis program is partially supported by a CityArts grant from the City of Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events. \nThis program is partially supported by a grant from the Illinois Arts Council Agency.
