In an exclusive documentary screening at Lincoln Center, audiences will have the opportunity to experience a historic recorded interview with Itamar Assumpção on Programa Ensaio, a renowned program produced by TV Cultura, one of Brazil’s most important public television networks. Recorded in 1999, the interview features Itamar reflecting on his relationship with music, Black identity, and Brazil, offering one of the most significant records of his artistic vision and thought. Anelis Assumpção—Itamar’s daughter, singer-songwriter, and director of MU.ITA: The Itamar Assumpção Museum—will lead a panel discussion and audience Q&A after the film screening.

There are two ways to access this free event: 1. General Admission, first-come first-served. Just show up! 2. Fast Track opening the Monday before the event at noon.
