Our program seeks to explore the common ground of our human experience through the lens of our prairie identity. As prairie musicians, we are shaped by our memories growing up in this place, the natural landscape found here, and the communities that we live in. No two musicians play alike, yet they share a common language. Similarly, music across the world is diverse beyond explanation, but at the same time a shared piece of everyone’s puzzle, understood and valued by all.

Kalliope are a new collaboration intent on expanding beyond the traditional confines of early music and creating a seamless performance incorporating many aspects of their joint artistic interests. Their new program “Muse & Mode” is an exploration of song and storytelling from Ancient Greece to the 21st Century. The curation invokes ancient archetypes of human storytelling and plants them in music spanning centuries, self-accompanied on a diverse array of instruments.
The livestream will take place at 5:30pm Mountain / 4:30pm Pacific.
