SUMMARY:Common Time | Celebrating American Composers
DESCRIPTION:Music connects us. It carries our memories\, gives voice to our
  experiences\, brings communities together\, and crosses boundaries of
  time and place. From the blues and jazz clubs that nurtured new sounds
  to the rock stages\, country dance halls\, and concert rooms where
  musical traditions continue to evolve\, American music tells a story
  of creativity\, influence\, and shared experience. 
 
 Inspired by the Griffin Museum of Photography's exhibition Common
  Time: American Musicality\, this concert series brings that story to
  life through live performance. The museum is pleased to Collaborate
  with the Winchester Community Music School for a series of concerts
  exploring the extraordinary range of American music -- from blues\,
  rock 'n' roll\, and jazz to bluegrass\, contemporary classical music\,
  Americana\, and beyond. 
 
 Across four distinct performances\, familiar songs and influential
  compositions offer a chance to revisit the artists who shaped our
  musical landscape\, discover unexpected connections between genres\,
  and experience the power of music to bring people together. Each
  performance offers its own perspective on the American musical
  tradition\, from the roots of rock and blues to the enduring voices of
  great songwriters and the expressive possibilities of American
  composers. 
 
 Common Time is both a musical rhythm and an idea: the pulse we share\,
  even when the music takes us in different directions. We invite you to
  experience these performances alongside the exhibition\, to see the
  images\, hear the sounds\, and celebrate the music that continues to
  shape our collective cultural experience. 
 
 First in our series is Celebrating American Composers 
 
 Performing modern classical and bluegrass pieces for string trio by
  American composers. A trio of WCMS faculty members--Molly Tucker\,
  violin\; Simone Cartales\, viola\; and Pamela Ambrose\, cello--will
  perform modern classical and bluegrass pieces for string trio by
  American composers. Featured works will include the Appalachia Waltz
  by Mark O'Connor\; Movement for String Trio by Coleridge-Taylor
  Perkinson\; and much more. 
 
 Thank you to our partner the Winchester Community Music School\, and
  to Fern and Charlie Nesson for making this series possible.
