KAPWA
Kapwa is a word in Tagalog meaning “to embrace in shared identity”. Our multi-disciplinary event will bring Asian and AAPI artists together, creating a space for us to cultivate a shared sense of community through music.
With a cast of Curtis Institute of Music musicians, Glimmerglass Festival Young Artists, freelance and seasoned professionals, the program will include classical voice, instrumental (violin, guitar, piano, oboe, traditional Japanese shamisen, traditional Hawaiian ukulele), multimedia, cultural fashion pieces, and original compositions. Through these platforms we will be highlighting Bengali, Chinese, Filipino, Hawaiian, Indian, Japanese, Korean and Tongan cultures. Follow our instagram @kapwa_music for updates on the project and to get an inside look at our creative process.
Please note: Performance programs are subject to last-minute changes and cancellations.
