What Is American: Rhythm Nation Premieres at The DiMenna Center for Classical Music

  • The DiMenna Center for Classical Music (map)

Join us at The DiMenna Center for Classical Music's Cary Hall for What Is American: Rhythm Nation, the next issue in PUBLIQuartet's What Is American series, a GRAMMY®-nominated album and touring project. This second volume features and celebrates American rhythmic traditions as expressions of bodily autonomy and tacit history-keeping. The program features four new works by Jeff Scott, Mazz Swift, Eddie Venegas, and Pulitzer Prize finalist Jlin, made possible through a 2024 Chamber Music America Artistic Projects grant supported by the Howard Gilman Foundation. Each piece evokes a distinct rhythmic world, reflecting the plurality of American movements and protecting the unspoken spirit of their lineage's narratives.
