Description
Soundmix brings together five extraordinary teenage musicians who are reinvigorating American musical traditions.

Styles explored include jazz horn, old-time fiddle, Native American flute, Latin percussion, classical cello, and rock bass. Featured mentors include trumpeter Wynton Marsalis and the late old time fiddle legend Melvin Wine, Soundmix celebrates American diversity, the passing on of traditions, and the unique power of music in people s lives.
