- 03-04-24 Michael Cain Cofounder and CEO at Ekwe talks about The "Concert for Peace" with Feddie Bell on the KMOJ Morning Show
Join us for an extraordinary concert where the language of music from around the world comes together to transcend borders and foster global unity and harmony. Immerse yourself in the powerful sounds of the ancient frame drum performed by Ekwe visiting artist Yousif Sheronick (Yo-Yo Ma, Laurie Anderson, Philip Glass), joined by an eclectic group of MacPhail musicians with special guest musicians from the local community.
The evening’s music will feature themes of joy, celebration, harmony, and peace. It will mark the world premiere of compositions by Michael Cain and Barbara Cohen, along with the inaugural recipient of the Ekwe & Maia Dave Scholarship, Aaina Padith, whose piece will be composed in Chennai, India, and performed live in the hall via the Ekwe music app.
Performers will include Michael Cain (keyboards/piano/bass), Barbara Cohen (vocals), JD Steele (vocals), Zacc Harris (guitar), visiting artist Yousif Sheronick (frame drum/hand percussion), RimShots!/Paul Babcock (marimba/percussion), David Feily (guitar), Abinnet Berhanu (drums), and Joe Strachan (keyboards).
All attendees will receive a complimentary license to download the Ekwe music app.
Please join us for a frame drum and hand percussion workshop by Yousif Sheronick at MacPhail on March 22.
🎶🌟 #MusicalPremiere #TalentUnveiled #ScholarshipCelebration
When an attendee leaves this concert,
we don’t want them to walk out of the hall;
we want them to float out on cloud nine…
To remember the gift of being alive
and that we are sharing space and time with others…
I might describe the music this way:
it’s going to be a celebration, it’s going to be a party,
and it’s going to be very moving.Michael Cain

About KMOJCast
From the publisher's feed
Select programming from KMOJ's airwaves and community voices. Since first going “on the air” in 1976, KMOJ-89.9-FM continues its legacy as the community-oriented station located in Minneapolis, Minnesota airing a predominantly urban adult contemporary format.
“KMOJ’s Community Viewpoint” is one way the station achieves its mission of engaging, supporting and empowering Communities of Color to elevate the way of life of the people of its community and to challenge social and economic disparities, and the persistent consequences of historic racism.
The station call letters, “KMOJ” were inspired by the Swahili word “UMOJA” which means “Unity.” http://kmojfm.com/
