Next season, conductor Christopher Rountree known for his “elegant clarity” (New York Times), prestigious French choreographer Dimitri Chamblas, and powerhouse section leaders Sidney Hopson (percussion), Nathalie Joachim (winds), C.J. Camerieri and Trever Hagen (brass) will guide an acoustic ensemble of 36 local musicians in an ultimate rendering of Pulitzer Prize-winning environmentalist composer John Luther Adams’s Crossing Open Ground in the majestic setting of our stunning red cliffs.

Ahead of this singular experience, producer Liquid Music will introduce the artistic team to the Kayenta community with works by the musicians, hosted by Rountree.
