Giddens began a weekend of collaborative events with a concert in Carnegie Hall’s Stern Auditorium in New York City last night with Our Native Daughters, her group with Amythyst Kiah, Leyla McCalla, and Allison Russell. It was the second of Giddens’ programs as Perspectives artist for Carnegie Hall’s 2022–23 season. Tonight, Giddens, Francesco Turrisi, and bassist Jason Sypher join the Charlotte Symphony for a one-night-only performance at the Belk Theater in Charlotte, North Carolina. And on Sunday, she takes part in a free, virtual Ojai Talk to talk with Festival Artistic and Executive Director Ara Guzelimian about the programming and collaborations to come at next year’s Ojai Music Festival, of which she is Music Director.
