From its inception in 1990, Ensemble Galilei has redefined the boundaries of chamber music, created new work, seized opportunities for collaborative relationships and consistently pushed the envelope in a series of innovative projects that explore combinations of images, words, and music. In “First Person: Seeing America” one experiences a combination of iconic photographs from the Metropolitan Museum of Art – searing pictures of the Civil War and haunting portraits from the Great Depression – with the beautiful string music of Ensemble Galilei and narration by NPR’s Neal Conan and actress Lily Knight to create a powerful multi-media performance.
