Description

In four concerts taking the audience around the globe, the popular series »Around the World« brings together artists who translate age-old musical cultures into vibrant contemporary performances. The versatile banjo virtuoso and singer Rhiannon Giddens traces the African roots in the music and mysticism of Black communities in the Caribbean. The Punch Brothers, led by the dazzling mandolinist Chris Thile, push bluegrass to new heights. Carminho explores fado – passed down to her by her mother Teresa Siqueira – between tradition and avant-garde, while Lila Downs combines Mexican traditional songs with a strong political voice.
