Join us for an evening of music that brings together two distinct ensembles, different musical traditions, and the possibility of something completely unexpected.

Jake Shulman-Ment's Midwood

Jake Shulman-Ment — violin
Eleanor Weill — flutes, hurdy gurdy
Yoshie Fruchter — guitar
Satoshi Takeishi — percussion

Mir Naqibul Islam's New Sound

Mir Naqibul Islam — tabla
Srikar Ayyalasomayajula — harmonium
Pranav Shikarpur — bansuri

The evening will unfold in three parts. The first set will feature Midwood, followed by a second set introducing the New Sound. For the final set, both ensembles will come together on stage, bringing their different musical languages into one shared space.

No fixed destination. No need to know exactly where it will go. Let’s see what the music takes us.
