The Imani Winds and Catalyst Quartet join forces for a special digital presentation, featuring a UMS Co-Commission that was composed by the Catalyst Quartet’s former violinist, Jessie Montgomery.

Sergeant McCauley is inspired by the Great Migration of African Americans during the early to middle 20th century, from the perspective of Montgomery’s great-grandfather, William McCauley. It brings together spirituals and work songs that reflect McCauley’s route from Mississippi through the West, north to the Dakotas, and eventually back south to Georgia.

This UMS Live Session was filmed and recorded at the University of Michigan’s Rackham Auditorium in January 2022.
