Oakland Symphony Presents: Notes from Native America at The Paramount Friday, February 24, 2017 [Jerod Tate & John Christopher Wineglass, Composers]

February’s “Notes from Native America” concert is our exploration of the music associated with Native Americans, something we as a Nation should be doing more of. Audiences will experience the rich cultural heritage of the hundreds of tribes and peoples that make up this community. This concert will be a chance to learn more about the first people to inhabit our country. There will be spoken word, dance and native instruments in what should be a colorful and spiritual concert experience.
