Kaisahan, a Filipino word meaning (roughly) 'to be one,' is the inspiration for the Arneis Quartet's ongoing programming initiative. Building on the Arneis Quartet’s affinity for collaboration, the Kaisahan Initiative will broadly apply our eclectic approach to programming across a diverse range of cultural traditions over the next two seasons. By actively exploring new ways to engage with existing artistic relationships while seeking to cultivate new connections, the quartet will enhance its organizational foundation that embodies sustainable artistic intersectionality.
