BLEMF25 | ABENDMUSIK 'THE UNION OF ALL PARTIES: MUSIC OF BLACK COMPOSER SAWNEY FREEMAN'

A skilled farm worker and fiddle player, Sawney Freeman was enslaved in Lyme, Connecticut, became a runaway in 1790, and was manumitted in 1793. Freeman was also a composer; several of his works are included in an early 19th century collection of music which lies in the Trinity College library in Hartford, Connecticut. Viol player, musicologist, and historian of New England musical culture, Loren Ludwig joins the exceptional consort Abendmusik, New York’s Period Instrument String Band, as guest curator for this concert, featuring Freeman’s compositions along with music that the composer may have heard and performed.
