When Memory Speaks: The Cosmology of Caribbean Arts

When:
March 24, 2:30 PM - 3:45 PM

Overview

Ethnomusicologist Danielle Brown, PhD, the creator of My People Tell Stories, will present a recital and arts education workshops on Thursday, March 24 in Shea Auditorium as part of a campus residency titled “The Cosmology of Caribbean Arts.” A storytelling performance will engage the audience in the ways that sound, memory, and spirit are foundational to understanding Caribbean arts. Brown will also present an arts education workshop guided by her principles of “Canon, People, Pedagogies (CPP)” for pre-service and in-service teachers from the region. Participants will learn the importance of representing Caribbean music in the classroom, not only for musical development, but also as a form of social justice.
