ROCO Connections - Pulling at Strings

Presented in partnership with Protected content series features guitarist Mak Grgic on March 26 in an evening of works from around the world, live from the Museum’s Albert and Ethel Herzstein Theater and live-streamed at ROCO.org, Facebook, and YouTube.
Joined by a string quartet and bass, Mak will perform the U.S premiere of Balkan Suite, based on music from his native Balkans, plus works by Aaron Jay Kernis and others.
