Music is among the most powerful expressions of cultural identity. Distinct tones, rhythms, and philosophies color musical traditions around our world. Equally compelling are the new musical languages that emerge when ideas cross borders and oceans to take root in new soil. Our 2026 summer festival, Migrations, will celebrate the journeys and musical conversations that are born from movement!
