SIX SQUARE PRESENT:

CRADLED BY GRACE

FEATURING MIRÓ QUARTET WITH SAM LIPMAN AND EPHRAIM OWENS

April 16th | King-Seabrook Chapel

Cradled By Grace is a new, 35-minute work for trumpet and symphony orchestra. This work culminates from the long-standing friendship of Austin’s foremost jazz trumpeter, Mr. Ephraim Owens, and his dear friend and collaborator, composer Sam Lipman. It celebrates the 25 years of rich music-making the two have shared, will be shaped by jazz, pop and classical elements they have grown up performing around the world, and celebrate a friendship that crosses a racial boundary.

Join the Miró Quartet, Ephraim and Sam, as they play several works together, include a preview of Cradled By Grace. Enjoy light refreshments afterwards and meet the artists.

Six Square – Austin’s Black Cultural District (formerly known as Austin’s African American Cultural Heritage District) is the first black cultural district in the state of Texas and the only cultural arts district in the city of Austin. The organization was created in 2013 as an outgrowth of the City Council’s African American Quality of Life Initiative, which detailed widespread disparities, racial biases, and a decreasing Black population. Since inception, Six Square has been dedicated to improving the quality of life for African American residents through preservation of historic Black spaces, artistic cultivation, and by serving as a catalyst for social and economic development.
