Davóne Tines & PUBLIQuartet
Bass-baritone Davóne Tines (“one of the most powerful voices of our time, L A Times) shares a new version of his MASS project together with PUBLIQuartet, the multi-GRAMMY®-nominated improvising string quartet whose repertoire blends genres and highlights American multiculturalism. MASS explores spirituality and mysticism through varied cultural lenses: following the format of a Christian liturgy, Western European, Afro-American, and 21st-century traditions converge in a single dramatic arc.
