Description
Don’t miss this bold, new, multimedia work by Sunny Jain (trailblazing percussionist, composer, and bandleader of the electrifying band Red Baraat). Joined by an ensemble of dynamic musicians, this evening weaves together powerful music, ancestral stories, and intimate monologues to explore Jain’s family history across Pakistan and India, and his journey toward music as a tool for healing and change. Satyagraha—Gandhi’s philosophy of nonviolent resistance—echoes throughout the piece as a call for love, unity, and justice in a fractured world.
