SUMMARY:Cassia Streb / Sandstone Quartet - Music for the Open Sky
DESCRIPTION:MUSIC\n \nCassia Streb / Sandstone Quartet\n \nMusic for the Open Sky\n \nSaturday\, April 4\, 2026\, 7:30PM\n \nPerformance to be followed by a reception with the artists.  \n \nLorraine Boccardo Theater\n \n\n“Across centuries\, composers have looked to the night sky as a place for reflection—an expanse that invites both wonder and humility. This program brings together music written more than five hundred years apart\, tracing different ways composers have contemplated the heavens.” \n\nCassia Streb\n\n \nFor centuries\, composers have looked to the night sky as a source of reflection and wonder. This program brings together music written more than 500 years apart\, tracing different ways artists have contemplated the cosmos. \n \nBeginning with Josquin des Prez’s haunting Renaissance lament—heard here in a new 2026 string quartet arrangement—the program moves through Beethoven’s luminous “Razumovsky” Quartet\, whose slow movement was inspired by his contemplation of the stars. Contemporary works by Leila Adu-Gilmore and Laurence Crane extend this tradition\, blending spectral harmony\, rhythmic complexity\, and fragments of Beethoven with imagery captured by NASA spacecraft and telescopes. \n \nTogether\, these works invite listeners to pause\, look upward\, and hear the vastness of the universe translated into sound. \n \n\nTICKETS\n\n\nPerformers\n\n 	Felix Hernandez-Jones\, violin\n 	Adrienne Andisheh\, violin\n 	Cassia Streb\, viola\n 	Kevin Mills\, cello\n\n\nAbout Sandstone Quartet: \n \n \nWorking collaboratively rather than hierarchically\, the quartet selects and develops repertoire that speaks to their individual and collective experiences. Their performances emphasize attentive listening\, trust\, and responsiveness — qualities that reflect both their musical values and the landscape they inhabit. The Sandstone Quartet’s work embodies a deep sense of place\, shaped by the quiet expanses and subtle shifts of the desert environment that connects them.

SUMMARY:ALFREDO RODRIGUEZ & PEDRITO MARTINEZ
DESCRIPTION:ALFREDO RODRIGUEZ & PEDRITO MARTINEZ\n\n\n\n\n\nSaturday\, February 7\, 2026\n7:30PM\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Lorraine Boccardo Theater\n\n\n\nAlfredo Rodríguez & Pedrito Martinez bring an electrifying conversation of rhythm\, melody\, and cultural heritage to the Center for the Arts at Kayenta. What begins as an intimate exchange between piano\, percussion\, and voice quickly erupts into a thrilling\, improvisation-driven performance that blurs the lines between classical precision\, Afro-Cuban tradition\, and modern jazz. \nGrammy-nominated pianist Alfredo Rodríguez\, a Havana conservatory prodigy discovered by Quincy Jones\, commands the keyboard with a style shaped as much by Bach and Stravinsky as by Cuban son and jazz. Percussionist and vocalist Pedrito Martinez\, forged in the folkloric traditions of Old Havana’s streets\, delivers visceral rhythms and soaring vocals rooted in Afro-Cuban spiritual and popular music. Each artist is a master in his own right; together\, they form a rare and powerful musical dialogue. \nTheir collaboration is spontaneous\, fearless\, and deeply expressive—moving seamlessly from traditional Cuban songs to daring originals and unexpected reinterpretations. With moments of breathtaking virtuosity and irresistible groove\, Rodríguez and Martinez create music that feels both ancient and boldly contemporary. \nTheir acclaimed album Duologue\, produced by Quincy Jones\, and their limited live appearances have established them as one of the most compelling duos on today’s global music stage. Audiences can expect an unforgettable evening of passion\, precision\, and rhythmic fire—music that speaks across cultures and straight to the soul. \nTICKETS\n  \n \n  \n  \nKayenta Arts’s presentation of the Alfredo Rodriguez & Pedrito Martinez is supported through a Chamber Music America Presenter Consortium for Jazz grant in collaboration with UtahPresents and Vilar Performing Arts Center. \nA component of the Doris Duke Jazz Ensembles Project\, Presenter Consortium for Jazz is funded by the Doris Duke Foundation.

SUMMARY:Cassia Streb / Sandstone Quartet - Between Home and Away
DESCRIPTION:MUSIC\nCassia Streb / Sandstone Quartet\nBetween Home and Away\nSaturday\, December 6\, 2025\, 7:30PM\nLorraine Boccardo Theater\n\n“We are gathering in the spirit of a salon. Each of these composers transforms familiar materials into something newly alive. I invite you to join us—to listen\, reflect\, and rediscover what it means to be at home in music.”\n— Cassia Streb\n\n\n\nHow do we find a sense of musical belonging—through the sounds of home\, or the songs of faraway places? Between Home and Away explores this question through three masterworks for string quartet by Antonín Dvořák\, Florence Price\, and Amy Beach—each illuminating the dialogue between identity\, influence\, and imagination. \nDvořák’s beloved “American” Quartet (composed in 1893) captures the composer’s wonder at the musical landscape of the New World\, weaving echoes of spirituals and Native American melodies into radiant chamber textures. Florence Price’s Five Folksongs in Counterpoint (1950) reclaims those same spiritual roots from within\, transforming familiar tunes like Swing Low\, Sweet Chariot into intricate\, joyful counterpoint. And Amy Beach’s Quartet for Strings in One Movement (1929) turns outward once more\, drawing inspiration from Inuit melodies to create a bold and luminous sound world. \nTogether\, these works invite us to listen beyond borders—to hear how music bridges distance and how\, through attentive listening\, we come to understand one another. \n  \nPerformance to be followed by a reception with the artists. \n  \n\nPerformers\nFelix Hernandez-Jones\, violin\nAdrienne Andisheh\, violin\nCassia Streb\, viola\nKevin Mills\, cello \nCurated by Cassia Streb\nLos Angeles–based violist\, composer\, and curator Cassia Streb brings her spirit of exploration to Kayenta in this new chamber music series. Trained in the classical tradition and deeply inspired by the natural world\, Streb’s curatorial approach bridges past and present\, honoring tradition while seeking new ways to listen. \n  \n\n\n\nTICKETS \n  \nWe have moved to a new ticketing system\, and are currently unable to accept AmericanExpress online.

SUMMARY:Elisa Harkins: Wampum / ᎠᏕᎳ ᏗᎦᎫᏗ
DESCRIPTION:MUSIC / PERFORMANCE\nElisa Harkins: Wampum / ᎠᏕᎳ ᏗᎦᎫᏗ\nSaturday\, May 10\, 7:30pm\nThe Lorraine Boccardo Theater\nWampum / ᎠᏕᎳ ᏗᎦᎫᏗ is an ongoing project where visual artist and composer Elisa Harkins sings in a combination of Cherokee\, English\, and Muscogee (Creek) to electronic dance music\, some of which is inspired by sheet music of Indigenous music notated by Daniel Chazanoff during the 20th century. \nAs an act of Indigenous Futurism\, it combines disco and Indigenous language in an effort to alter the fate of these endangered languages through active use\, preservation on pressed vinyl\, and radio play. \nThe performance of Wampum / ᎠᏕᎳ ᏗᎦᎫᏗ is referring to Wampum belts and Indigenous peacekeeping as well as the Cherokee use of wampum beads as currency. \nᎠᏕᎳ ᏗᎦᎫᏗ\, pronounced a-de-la di-ga-gu-di can be translated to “money on a string”. \nThe intention of the Wampum / ᎠᏕᎳ ᏗᎦᎫᏗ performance is to create a metaphorical peacekeeping agreement that is between the people watching the piece\, regardless of tribe or race. \nTICKETS

The songs that make up Niineta (translated from Ojibwe\, meaning ‘Just Me’) start with Andrew Broder’s churning avant-garde beats\, configured and hand-made to support Joe’s original melodies\, tunes written from a lifetime of competitive Pow Wow singing and drum group archiving. All of this is embraced by and interwoven with celestial strings\, arranged by Broder and William Brittelle\, performed by Owls\, giving Joe’s melodies a cinematic and ecstatic lift. \nPurchase Tickets Here

To us\, Bluegrass music is uniquely alive\, because of the community of  artists and fans that keep it fresh and interesting.” \n\n\n\nSunday Night… All Right! is organized by Gwen Harrington and Roger Head. \nTICKETS $15
