Ancestral Light

  • The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art - Atkins Auditorium 4525 Oak Street Kansas City, MO, 64111 United States (map)

Experience the spellbinding artistry of Ana Everling, a vocalist and storyteller whose music bridges the deep-rooted traditions of Romanian folklore from Moldova with daring originality and improvisational flair. Drawing upon ancestral melodies, including the expressive freeform genre of Doina, Ana reimagines centuries-old sounds with a modern, intimate voice uniquely her own. Her journey—from art schools in Moldova to the streets of Chicago to sold-out stages across the U.S.—infuses her performances with authenticity, resilience, and emotional depth. Honored as Artist Emerit by the President of Moldova, Ana invites audiences into a sonic world where heritage and innovation meet, and where every moment feels both timeless and electrifying.
