About This Program
Approximate length 1:05
This program shines a light on the heart of American chamber music — music shaped by spirituals, folk traditions, and everyday emotion. The result is deeply personal and refreshingly honest, with warm harmonies, lyrical melodies, and a sense of place woven throughout. It’s a chance to hear American stories told in sound: reflective, soulful, and rooted in human connection.
