Silk Road: Uzbekistan - News and Events
In residence in Baku, Azerbaijan, the Silk Road Ensemble collaborated with mugham vocalist Alim Qasimov, a Living National Treasure of Azerbaijan and long-time Ensemble member, and five other leading Azerbaijani artists.
Sharing musical and cultural backgrounds with local musicians and the residents of Baku was the goal of the residency. Yo-Yo Ma, Qazimov and the Silk Road Ensemble rehearsed and performed in the newly renovated Philharmonia Hall. The musicians also conducted workshops at three local conservatories, affording additional opportunities for cultural exchange and musical inspiration.
This concert was supported in part by the American Embassy in Azerbaijan through a grant from the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs, United States Department of State. The grant also supports cultural exchange workshops offered by the Silk Road Ensemble to students at participating music schools in Baku.
