Caballito Negro Awarded 2024 UMEZ grant

We are happy to announce that Caballito Negro (flutist Tessa Brinckman and percussionist Terry Longshore) is also the recipient of a 2024 UMEZ Arts Engagement grant for the concert, “Caballito Negro + Friends – Birds, Bees & Electric Fish.” Our fully-funded grant will support a performance presented in Northern Manhattan by Inwood Art Works in October, 2024, as part of a larger, northeastern tour. 

We will be joined by flutist Lisa Cella and percussionist Dustin Donahue, performing a newly-commissioned quartet by Juri Seo, and other innovative duos and solos. Caballito Negro led a consortium of 32 participants to commission Seo’s Birds, Bees, Electric Fish, a significant addition to the flute and percussion repertoire.
