Americana invites reflection on the trajectory of classical music in the United States, exploring the diversity of voices and influences that have shaped the country’s musical imagination.
In a world where issues of identity, race, and belonging grow ever more urgent, Americana gives visibility to composers who, in the first half of the 20th century — one of the most turbulent periods in U.S. history — helped define the collective identity of American classical music.
