Jam Session with Silkroad

Calling all community musicians with diverse musical and cultural traditions! Join us for a free-flowing evening of music making and cultural exchange with members of the Silkroad Ensemble. We encourage you to bring along a simple tune from your tradition you’d like to share, but you are also welcome to just show up with your instrument and join in! Not a musician? Come enjoy a conversation between diverse instruments and traditions unfolding before your very eyes.

//ABOUT SILKROAD//

Founded by cellist Yo-Yo Ma in 1998, Silkroad creates music that engages difference, sparking radical cultural collaboration and passion-driven learning to build a more hopeful world. The musicians of the Grammy Award-winning Silkroad Ensemble represent dozens of artistic traditions and nationalities, and appear in many configurations and settings. This event is part of Silkroad’s three-year College of the Holy Cross residency exploring the roles that passion and art can play in learning.
