About Kathryn Lockwood and Yousif Sheronick

Yonkers, New York

Kathryn Lockwood and Yousif Sheronick’s (CBA ’21) music ensemble duoJalal explores a range of global music from Classical to Klezmer, Middle Eastern to Jazz. Lockwood is a classically-trained violist from Australia who manipulates the viola to sound like instruments such as the medieval rebec and the Shakuhachi (Japanese flute). Sheronick employs the sounds of instruments ranging from the Egyptian tambourine and ancient frame drums to the Peruvian cajon.

Symbiosis – The Interwoven Connection Between Musician and Dancer

At CBA, Lockwood and Sheronick will work with two dancers from Pilobolus on a new work. Their goal is to create a musical score and choreography with the dancers, and to explore the possibility of improvisation during a performance.
