The Aga Khan Master Musicians, a six-person ensemble brought together by the Aga Khan Music Programme to explore how musical innovation can contribute to the revitalisation of cultural heritage, made its North American debut last week in three specially-produced concert films commissioned and broadcast by prestigious arts presenters: Hopkins Centre for the Arts at Dartmouth College (10 November), the Aga Khan Museum (13 November), and the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of Asian Art (14 November). Originally scheduled as live events, the concerts were moved online after the pandemic shut down concert halls around the world.
