Progressive hip-hop artist/composer Christylez Bacon is joined by guzheng (Chinese zither) artist Qi Yu for an innovative performance exploring cross-cultural collaboration through music.
Elements of hip-hop, like human beatbox, rhyming, and storytelling, blend with elements of traditional and modern Chinese music to create a unique experience spotlighting teamwork and creativity. Together, these two musicians blend genres and styles to bring a wholly original performance that pushes the envelope for musical collaboration.
This event takes place at Mechanicsville Elementary School, in the gym. Most seating will be on the floor- feel free to bring a blanket! Summer Performing Arts events are supported in part by a grant from the St. Mary's County Arts Council.
