What legacies do they embody? What memories do they cement? These questions will be explored at Washington DC's Kennedy Center this month through a collection of new operas, including one called \"Rise\", with music by Kamala Sankaram. Kamala joins Garrett to talk about her introduction to opera, what \"Rise\" is meant to relay to audiences, and how this work continues the push for more new music in traditional \"classical\" spaces. Scott highlights the educational advocacy of violinist Ezinma, Garrett unpacks a musical about a machine that turns Black people white, and the guys continue their celebration of Women's History Month with music by Julia Wolfe, Martha Wash, and more.\r\n\r\nPlaylist:\r\n\r\nMykhailo Verbytsky - \"Shche ne vmerla Ukraina\" (Ukrainian National Anthem)\r\nEzinma - \"Ode To Hustle\"\r\nBlack Thought - \"Thought Vs Everybody\"\r\nJulia Wolfe - \"Reeling\"\r\nSNAP! - \"The Power\"\r\nBlack Box - \"Everybody Everybody\"\r\nC+C Music Factory - \"Everybody Dance Now\"\r\nMartha Wash - \"I'm Not Coming Down\"\r\nBombay Rickey - \"Megalodon\" \r\nBombay Rickey - \"Taki Rari\" \r\nFrancisco Mignone - Concertino for Bassoon and Chamber Orchestra\r\n\r\nMore:\r\n\r\nKamala Sankaram: https://www.kamalasankaram.com\r\nThe Kennedy Center Presents \"Written in Stone\": https://www.kennedy-center.org/wno/home/2021-2022/written-in-stone/\r\nDownbeat (Kira Rudik Honors International Women's Day): https://twitter.com/kiraincongress/status/1500962456763514883?s=20&t=SP3akLIePrwyJdZhTGH_bQ\r\nValery Gergiev, a Putin Ally, Fired as Chief Conductor in Munich: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/03/01/arts/music/valery-gergiev-fired-munich-ukraine.html\r\nEzinma Brings Music To Underserved Youth: https://www.thestrad.com/news/beyonces-violinist-launches-foundation-to-bring-classical-music-to-underserved-children/14537.article\r\nA machine turns Black people white in the musical 'Black No More': https://www.npr.org/2022/02/14/1080160459/black-no-more-machine-musical-tariq-trotter\r\nEU Official Calls Refugee...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/JPjoxq2TKjzyGIDod5AR0vf0PJ66oOQOBMGhTIooMcc/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzExMjc2LzE1OTEx/NzIxNDgtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
