Presented in collaboration with the New York Philharmonic

The series’ inaugural conversation revolves around questions of belonging and the meaning of home within the vast geographic and social range of the U.S. The discussion is inspired by the New York Philharmonic’s performances that week of music by Bartók, a Hungarian expatriate on American soil; Ives, a maverick New Englander; and Leilehua Lanzilotti, whose work is receiving its world premiere—the newly commissioned of light and stone, a composition that honors her Hawaiian home.

This conversation is part of a five-event series examining the American experience in celebration of the 250th anniversary of the United States Declaration of Independence. Moderated by renowned ethnomusicologist, historian, and Juilliard faculty member Fredara Hadley, each discussion is scheduled to last one hour and will be followed by an audience Q&A.
