Violinist Aisha Syed, Heritage World Tour

After her acclaimed sold-out Carnegie Hall debut, first-class Dominican violinist Aisha Syed returns to Carnegie’s Zankel Hall. The performance is part of her Heritage World Tour which takes her to 11 countries across the Americas, Europe, and Asia. It comprises a conglomerate of pieces that form her musical identity as a Dominican with an Indian background growing up in the United Kingdom who later moved to the United States. Syed has been hailed as the “future of classical music in the Dominican Republic” by Maestro Carlos Piantini.

The New York-based Dominican Heritage and Culture Society(DHCS) presents the performance as their third annual concert with proceeds supporting their newly-established scholarship fund. DHCS scholarships will be given to underserved young Dominican talents pursuing their dreams in music, art, history, literature, and the performing arts. During the concert, DHCS also honors twotremendous influences in the Dominican community – former United States Ambassador to Uruguay Julissa Reynoso and humanitarian doctor Dr. Ramon Tallaj. The evening concert is hosted by Evi Siskos.
