SUMMARY:"Last of James Fenimore Cooper"
DESCRIPTION:Composer Brent Michael Davids (Mohican/ Munsee-Lenape) has composed a charming quartet about James Fenimore Cooper. Davids\, who embraces Indigenous themes and subjects in his music\, considers Cooper’s ignorance of native culture in “The Last of the Mohicans” for this delightful work for string quartet\, featuring members of Albany Symphony. This event is featured as part of the Sanctuary for Independent Media’s Freedom Fest in collaboration with the American Music Festival. Join us at the Sanctuary Main Space for the culmination of our multi-year NEA Our Town Sanctuary Eco-Art Trail Project! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBrent Michael Davids is an internationally celebrated Mohican and Munsee-Lenape composer\, and self-described music warrior. As an advocate for Native equity and parity\, Davids places Native voices front and center. He originated and co-founded the award-winning Native American Composer Apprentice Project (NACAP)\, championing indigenous youth to compose their own written music. He uses indigenous instruments\, including handmade quartz flutes\, and pens performable notations that are themselves visual works of art. Davids is co-director of the Lenape Center in Manhattan\, and is enrolled in the Stockbridge-Munsee Community. His composing career spans nearly five decades\, with countless awards and commissions from America’s most celebrated organizations and ensembles. \n\n\n\n“When we collaborate and experiment in song\, we are discovering life benefits\, not simply musical ones. Our interactions as composers\, performers\, audiences\, students and teachers constitute important relational skills. If we can excite creativity and cooperation in each other\, we have accomplished a magnificent thing.” – Brent Michael Davids \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBrent Michael Davids · LAST OF JAMES FENIMORE COOPER\n\n\n\nGet a taste\, or rather\, a listen of what’s to come on June 9th\, 2024 with the string quartet version of\, “Last of James Fenimore Cooper.” Via Miro Quartet\, Brent Michael Davids.
