The Global Roots Ensemble joined Iris Berkeley on Mundi for a live in-studio session ahead of their concert on Sunday, October 5th at the Dairy Arts Center in Boulder. Supported by a recent arts grant, the group aims to bring together diverse communities through storytelling and music that blends traditions from around the world. They previewed new works, including Benes to Brandenburg, imagining a meeting of Bach and the Indian poet-musician Kabir, and Raja’s Footprints, inspired by John Coltrane’s spiritual connection to India. The ensemble described their upcoming performance as an immersive, improvisational journey with their full quintet, weaving global instruments, narratives, and cross-cultural dialogue into a shared musical experience.
