Details
Join us for a concert celebration of Douglas R. Ewart Day (September 13) led by Douglas R. Ewart in collaboration with Ananya Chatterjea (Dancer and Choreographer), Kealoha Ferreira (Dancer and Choreographer), Juliet “Sonny” Irving (Dancer and Choreographer), Mankwe Ndosi (Musician and Poet), and Laura Harada (Violinist).
Perhaps best known as a composer, improviser, sculptor and maker of masks and instruments, Douglas R. Ewart (b. 1946, Kingston, JM) is also an educator, lecturer, arts organization consultant and all around visionary. In projects done in diverse media throughout an award-winning and widely-acclaimed 40-year career, Mr. Ewart has woven his remarkably broad gifts into a single sensibility that encourages and celebrates--as an antidote to the divisions and compartmentalization afflicting modern life-the wholeness of individuals in culturally active communities. His renowned interdisciplinary work includes performance on a vast range of saxophones, flutes, woodwinds, and percussion instruments of his own design and construction.
