Creekside Singers - Lakota Music Project (Live) (2022) [Official Digital Download 24/96]

Performing for the first-time outside South Dakota, the South Dakota Symphony Orchestra’s (SDSO) Lakota Music Project will appear in concert at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of the American Indian Oct. 19 at 2 p.m. The concert will feature two Native American Music Award winning artists—singer Emmanuel Black Bear (Oglala Sioux Tribe) and cedar flutist Bryan Akipa (Sisseton Wahpeton Oyate)—as well as musicians from the symphony orchestra. Free and open to the public, the performance will be held in the museum’s Rasmuson Theater.

The Lakota Music Project is the flagship community- engagement program of the SDSO. In performing Native and non-Native music, the project seeks to create an environment of openness that treats both cultures with dignity and respect.

The performance will include commissioned works by Akipa and Jerod Impichchaachaaha’ Tate (Chickasaw Nation), participants in the SDSO’s Music Composition Academies. The performers will be joined by SDSO Music Director Delta David Gier; Professor Emeritus of American Indian Studies Ronnie Theisz at Black Hills State University; and Lakota elder Chris Eagle Hawk.
