The brass quartet explores a broad expanse of American music in the sixth concert of a new series launched by violinist Lara St. John and live streamed by CRB from New York's historic Atterbury House.
The Westerlies dig deep into the traditions and lineage of American folk music, finding common ground amongst shape-note hymns, folk anthems, and timeless spirituals. The voices of Woody Guthrie, the Golden Gate Jubilee Quartet, and Judee Sill are heard anew, alongside works by composers whose use of folk melodies transcended their time, from the sophistication of Duke Ellington to the bold imagination of Charles Ives.
The broadcast will take place at 5pm Eastern / 2pm Pacific.
