TOMORROW, May 19 at 3pm Central: AACM in Conversation with Rudresh Mahanthappa
Rudresh Mahanthappa's "GBME" is based on 8:46. While it was later revealed that the actual time that the Derek Chauvin knelt on George Floyd’s neck was actually longer, 8:46 resonated throughout the world manifesting in various modes of social protest and action.
Join artist and AACM member Renee Baker and artist Rudresh Mahanthappa's discussion of the work Rudresh has developed for AACM through our ACF l connect program. We'll learn about Rudresh's inspiration for the improvisation-driven piece and the process of creating this piece about how calls to action manifest for this iconic Chicago-based ensemble that has worldwide reach - moderated by Dameun Strange.
