Today, it’s Midday on the Arts.  A little later this hour, we’ll check in with a playwright from Baltimore, R. Eric Thomas, who will premiere two new plays at two different theaters here in Baltimore this spring. Both Baltimore Center Stage and the Everyman Theater will be featuring his newest work.

But first, Tom welcomes to the show an extraordinary, Grammy Award-nominated musical artist, Nathalie Joachim. She's a Haitian American flutist, composer and singer, and she’ll be in Baltimore this Sunday afternoon performing a work that draws inspiration from her Haitian heritage, and other great Haitian women artists.

It’s called Fanm d'Ayiti, which means “Women of Haiti.”

To hear a selection from the work, "Papa Loko (Interlude, September 24, 1918)," click here.

Nathalie Joachim joins us on Zoom from Chicago.
