Traditions in Transition - Asian American Creative Music
Saxophonist Francis Wong and tuba virtuoso William Roper will join artist in residence Glenn Horiuchi on shamisen along with members of the Museum’s Shamisen Ensemble in a special collaborative concert.
Both Wong and Horiuchi are key figures in the Asian American creative music movement in which artists are creating distinct, individual languages which draw upon materials from traditional Asian music and the jazz avant garde.
Free with Museum admission. Reservations suggested. Limited seating available.
