A Civil Rights Reader
Sunday, February 08 2009

Daniel Bernard Roumain (DBR) is a composer, performer, violinist and bandleader who seamlessly blends funk, rock, hip-hop and classical music into a new sonic vision of music. His soul-inspiring pieces range from orchestral scores to energetic chamber works to rock songs and electronica. DBR, along with his string quartet, will perform works from his Civil Rights Reader program — a collection of DBR’s string quartets exploring iconic figures of the civil rights era: Malcolm X, Martin Luther King Jr., Adam Clayton Powell Jr. and Maya Angelou. Critics from both the classical and popular music fields rave about this classical-urban ambassador for the next generation. DBR is a musical revolutionary for the 21st century.

Time: 3:00 PM.
