Silkroad Ensemble Pop-Up Performances: Buddhist Journeys

Members of the famed Silkroad Ensemble explore musical responses to Encountering the Buddha and the Freer’s exhibitions of Buddhist art in spaces throughout the museums. Featured artists are Syrian-born clarinetist Kinan Azmeh, bassist Jeffrey Beecher, violist Nicholas Cords, percussionists Shane Shanahan and Haruka Fujii, and Shaw Pong Liu on violin and erhu (Chinese fiddle). Musical walks begin at 2 and 3:30 pm in the lobby in front of the Freer’s Meyer Auditorium.
