Brazilian Violin Trio brings together three of the most innovative instrumentalists on the contemporary Brazilian musical scene. Andrew Finn Magill and Ted Falcon are both multi-genre American violinists who after years of living in Brazil have become ambassadors of the growing Brazilian violin movement. Rounding out the trio is Brazilian guitarist Nando Duarte, a giant of the contemporary Brazilian music scene and an award-winning composer and arranger.
Choro Das 3 is a vibrant and virtuosic all-female instrumental ensemble, returning with a new album to the Washington, DC area after a hugely successful sold-out show in 2017.

Choro Das 3 is a family-based band composed of: Corina (flutes), Lia (7 string acoustic guitar) and Elisa (mandolin, clarinet, banjo, and piano) with their father, Eduardo (pandeiro).

The approach to the Maryland Opera Studio’s 2018 production of Mozart’s Le nozze di Figaro is about staging the ‘then’ and the ‘now’ at the same time: what happens when 1786 kisses 2018? What does that time in history have to say to us in the present day about #metoo? Is it any wonder that we got to here when we used to be there? And where do we go from here? How do we all arrive at the truth and reconciliation so desperately needed in our world, and so humanly and transcendently rendered in the setting of Figaro?

A mixed-bill evening of dance ranging from classical to contemporary dance, Fall Forward features performances from The Ngoma School Students. DDT presents three world premieres Rise, The Winds of Time, and The Happy Hour. Rise explores three men and the range of emotion they experience in the midst of uncertainty, fear, pain, and hope - like dust...They rise. The Winds of Time (Choreographed by UMD's Alvin Mayes) honors and gives a home-going to soul-singer, Aretha Franklin.
