Chamber Music Northwest: Voices of Our Land: Dvořák “American” Quintet

America is, indeed, a musical confluence—a land of many traditions, cultures, and voices that merge to create something entirely new. From Dvořák’s “American” Quintet, influenced by his visit to North America, and our country’s grande dame of composers, Joan Tower’s Petroushskates, to groundbreaking works by the innovative Henry Cowell and Chickasaw American composer Jerod Impichchaachaaha’ Tate, this concert weaves together a rich tapestry of our cultures and traditions, celebrating America’s incredibly diverse musical heritage that continues to evolve to this day.

Concert sponsored by Jerome Guillen & Jeremy Gallaher.
