Life is an Echo

The power of tone and silence

San Ureshi will illuminate the rich variety of Asian musical traditions in this show.

Of Japanese, Taiwanese, and Singaporean heritage, the musicians of San Ureshi will illuminate the richness of their cultural backgrounds performing on erhu, guzheng, and percussion. Students will discover how to create space for and between themselves through music and learn how to respect one another through the arts.
