DBR & THE MISSION


Thursday, February 15, 2007
Bowker Auditorium   7:30 pm
$25, $15; Youth 17 and under: $12, Five College Students: $10, $7
Daniel Bernard Roumain (DBR) is a composer, performer, violinist, and bandleader who seamlessly blends funk, rock, hip-hop and classical music into a new sonic vision that is far out and creative in another world. He is a classical-urban ambassador for the next generation, and for a widening audience, on a growing national and international scene, he's simply revolutionary. For his Fine Arts Center performance, he brings THE MISSION featuring his 9-piece band.

Funded in part by the Expeditions program of the New England Foundation for the Arts, which receives major support from the National Endowment for the Arts and additional support from the state arts agencies of New England.
