Variations on America: A Discussion Series

Presented in collaboration with the New York Philharmonic

In recognition of the 250th anniversary of the United States Declaration of Independence, Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts and the New York Philharmonic, one of the nation’s founding cultural organizations, co-present a series of free discussions examining the American experience and inspired by that week’s NY Phil concert. Held at the David Rubenstein Atrium, each uniquely themed program, moderated by renowned ethnomusicologist, historian, and Juilliard faculty member Fredara Hadley, will feature experts discussing topics that expand on the music to explore sociological themes, ranging from revolution and resistance to issues of wealth and prosperity, the tenor of the American voice to the beating heart of the American Dream. All are welcome to learn and participate; each event is free and tickets are not required.
