Join Duke University’s resident Ciompi Quartet for Cultural Crossroads: Dvořák in America—a free multimedia concert exploring the influence of Black and Indigenous musical traditions on composer Antonín Dvořák during his time in the United States. This compelling program interweaves Dvořák’s beloved “American” Quartet and Quintet with original Native American melodies, African American Spirituals, and works by Florence Price, creating a vivid tapestry of cultural exchange. Featuring acclaimed performers Kenneth Kellogg (bass), R. Carlos Nakai (Native flute), Will Clipman (world percussion), and curator/violist Pamela Freund-Striplen, the performance is enhanced by evocative short videos and images. A powerful blend of music, history, and heritage, Cultural Crossroads entertains, educates, and inspires.Event URL: https://arts.duke.edu/events/the-ciompi-quartet-cultural-crossroads-dvorak-in-america/
