NEXT FRIDAY: PUBLIQuartet's Record Release Performance of "What is American" /// 2018-2019 Artists-in-Residence @publiq4tet return for their fourth appearance on the @nationalsawdust stage to perform in full for the first time their latest album “What is American,” presented in partnership with the Sphinx Organization. "What is American" highlights our country’s complex histories with the Black and Indigenous roots of contemporary, blues, jazz, free, and rock music. By bringing marginalized voices back into the fold of western classical music, PUBLIQuartet expands the genre’s ability to respond to and reflect on the most pressing issues of our time. Join us next Friday, November 11th for a journey through America's rich musical history with PUBLIQuartet–buy tickets via the link in our bio. /// Co-presented with the Sphinx Organization (@sphinxorg), this performance is one of a series reflecting both organizations' commitment to empowering diverse voices that are reshaping the landscape of western classical music. // Video of PUBLIQuartet performing their improvisation on Tina Turner's "Black Coffee" off of their album 'What is American.'
