Detroit’s own Creative Arts Collective (CAC) celebrates 46 years of innovation. Grammy-Nominated PUBLIQuartet and CAC founding member and Artistic/Executive Director A. Spencer Barefield (guitar), perform a program inspired by the hundreds of concerts and world-renowned artists CAC has brought to Detroit over the past 5 decades, including the series "Creative Music at the DIA" from 1979 -1992. This performance features the world premiere of George Lewis’s latest String Quartet 3.5 “Great Migrations” commissioned by The Koussevitzky Foundation, Library of Congress; as well as works by Vijay Iyer, Henry Threadgill, and A. Spencer Barefield.
This is the final performance in a series of concerts and commissions celebrating CAC, presented with support from The Knight Foundation, New Music USA, The Sphinx Foundation, The Kresge Foundation, The Koussevitzky Foundation and The Detroit Institute of Arts.
