Filled with stunning music performed by stellar traditional Japanese and jazz musicians, the piece explores a fascinating and seldom told chapter of Los Angeles's history. While Japanese Americans were incarcerated, newly arrived African Americans from the South settled in Little Tokyo, where they remained until the war's end. The National Museum will co-present the piece in the Harold M. Williams Auditorium at the Getty Center. The concert is free, but reservations are required and can only be made by contacting the Getty Center after April 19. For information and reservations, visit www.getty.edu or call 310.440.7300.

This presentation is made possible, in part, by grants from the California Civil Liberties Public Education Program and the Department of Cultural Affairs, City of Los Angeles.
