Ui Philharmonia Orchestra And Illini Strings

Krannert Center for the Performing Arts

Philharmonia presents works from the musically rich Muqam tradition of Central Asia, featuring a North American premier of a work by Uyghur composer Nusrat Wajiding entitled Homeland. The theme of “homeland” carries into the second half, with three further musical portrayals of the intersecting relationships between location, music, and identity.
