The artists:

The Bardin-Niskala Duo (cello-piano) seeks to spark conversations and build community through collaborative artistic exploration. The Duo is commissioning and touring a series of pieces which embrace the richness of distinct cultural identities through the use of folk and children’s songs, and celebrate our mutual human journeys of innocence, loss, and healing.  These pieces are the works of BIPOC (Black, Indigenous and People of Color) composers Yiheng Yvonne Wu (Taiwanese), Niles Luther (half Ugandan), Juantio Becenti (Navajo Nation) and Chihchun Chi-Sun Lee (Taiwanese-American).
