Silkroad Ensemble with Rhiannon Giddens - Sanctuary: The Power of Resonance and Ritual Tickets

In its latest program, the pace-setting Silkroad Ensemble explores music as a powerful medium for healing and connection across cultures. Visionary musician Rhiannon Giddens leads a marvelously eclectic collection of performers steeped in American, South Asian, West African, and southern European musical traditions, in an interactive presentation that welcomes audience participation and reflection.

Italian tarantella, Congolese string music, Indian tabla, American roots music, and Syrian taarab converse across ethnic and national boundaries, with the signature organicism and collaborative ethos that has defined Silkroad’s performances since its founding 25 years ago.

“Surprising and beautiful…you can hear divisions of genre and style wash away in real time like the ramparts of a crumbling sandcastle” (San Francisco Chronicle).
