Learn more about the intention of the Dreamers project to celebrate the beauty of music as a political act, take a closer look at some of the lyrics performed in the concert, and hear from Magos Herrera about why Brooklyn Rider was the perfect partner for this collaboration.
"Magos Herrera, the smoky-voiced jazz singer from Mexico, practically whispers the verses, their poetic images swirling...she gets way under the skin of the song, recalling great communicators like Edith Piaf or Billie Holiday. And she's backed by Brooklyn Rider, a string quartet of boundless imagination."
