Native American Composer Apprentice Project
Every summer a professional string quartet from New York City travels to the most remote area in the lower 48 states, the northeast corner of Arizona. They meet high school students from the Navajo and Hopi nations, as part of the Native American Composer Apprentice Project, which is part of the Grand Canyon Music Festival. But -- who is teaching whom? We'll hear from Navajo composer Mike Begay, and from members of the string quartet ETHEL. It's part two of this month's Performance Today feature "Music That Matters."
