Dawn Avery, composer and Wilhelmina Smith, cello: Sweetgrass (Azica Records)
Indigenous composer Dawn Avery is very proud of her Mohawk descent. Cellist Wilhelmina Smith discovered Dawn’s music while working on a video project. Afterwards, Dawn started to share more works with Wilhelmina, which led to their first collaborative recording, Sweetgrass. Find out more on New Classical Tracks with host Julie Amacher.
