Silkroad Ensemble with Rhiannon Giddens at BGSU

The Silkroad Ensemble’s latest flagship program with Artistic Director Rhiannon Giddens is Sanctuary: The Power of Resonance and Ritual. In this new program,

Giddens, Silkroad artists, and special guests explore how music can help us better understand our world, find comfort, process loss and a changing environment, and rebuild community based on our own humanity. Throughout history, humans have turned to music for solace and soothing in times of conflict or stress. In particular, the idea of “trance”—leading to a profound peace that is hard to find in modern society—is closely tied to the communal making of music in many different cultures.

This shared musical experience helps us uplift one another and find joy and hope through stronger relationships.

Free tickets must be procured in advance online.
