About
BRIDGES
Rhythm Nation celebrates American rhythmic traditions as an expression of bodily autonomy and tacit history keeping. From the jagged grooves of Daniel Bernard Roumains String Quartet No.1: X (an homage to Malcolm X), to the otherworldly textures of Sun Ras Interstellar Low Ways, to the lyricism of Duke Ellingtons Come Sunday, this wide-ranging exploration will also feature movements from Fodé Lassana Diabates Sunjatas Time. Each of the pieces on the program evokes a distinct rhythmic world, reflecting the plurality of American movement(s) and protecting the unspoken spirit of their lineages narratives.
Applauded by The Washington Post as a perfect encapsulation of todays trends in chamber music, and by The New Yorker as independent-minded, multi-Grammy-nominated PUBLIQuartet is an improvising string quartet whose repertoire blends genres and highlights American multiculturalism. Hailed for their magnetic momentum and energy (Feast of Music) thrilling immediacy of their boldly imaginative playing (BBC Music Magazine), PubliQuartet brings both technical mastery and freewheeling joy to their music playing (Feast of Music). The quartet comprises Curtis Stewart and Jannina Norpoth, violin; Nick Revel, viola and Hamilton Berry, cello.
2026-27 tickets go on sale in July.
