Khac Chi Ensemble
Khac Chi Ensemble performs the music of the mountain people of Vietnam featuring rare instruments such as the dan t'rung - a suspended bamboo xylophone - and the dan bau - a one-stringed zither. The energetic rhythms and fascinating timbres offer intriguing glimpses into Vietnam's rich musical traditions.
Korean Classical Music and Dance Company
In celebration of the Lunar New Year, the Korean Classical Music and Dance Company performs both folk and court styles. Using a 12-tone scale instead of the Western diatonic scale, the company performs authentic music and exquisite dance that originated with the ancient culture's royal dynasties.
Performance takes place on Saturday, January 14, 2012 at 11:00 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. FREE tickets are distributed on Grand Avenue at 2nd Street. Tickets for 11:00 a.m. performance are distributed beginning at 10:00 a.m. Tickets for 12:30 p.m. performance are distributed beginning at 11:00 a.m.
Designed by Music Center Teaching Artists, workshops give children the opportunity to explore the featured culture through unique art-making projects such as calligraphy, puppets, musical instruments, accordion books, textile projects and more. Workshops are available during each World City engagement and are FREE and open to the public.
