Acclaimed for its innovative, eclectic, thematic programming, Aurea blends classical chamber music, brilliant harmonica improvisations and poignant readings. Daybreak, inspired by Langston Hughes’ iconic poem, Daybreak in Alabama, is an exciting first collaboration between the Aurea Ensemble and Festival Ballet Providence for the Pawtucket Arts Festival. We are thrilled to present this program premiere, celebrating a new dawn of hope and reconciliation, the return of live performance and the great diverse, rich spirit of our nation.
