Tillman Tuesday 🎻 Meet Dr. Christina Ebersohl-Van Scyoc, a 2022 Tillman Scholar whose work bridges military service, music, and cultural preservation.

After serving as a U.S. Army Arabic linguist, Christina’s unexpected encounter with Egyptian music sparked years of research, international performance, and scholarship dedicated to amplifying voices too often unheard beyond Egypt’s borders. Through her work as a violist, researcher, and author, she is preserving artistic legacies and fostering cross-cultural connection through storytelling and music.

Her latest album, releasing June 14, “Viola al-Mashura: The Enchanted Viola,” and her book, “Echoes of Cairo,” highlight the lives and works of Egyptian composers whose stories reflect resilience, innovation, and profound artistic vision.

“The support of the Pat Tillman Foundation made it possible to pursue projects dedicated not only to performance and scholarship, but also to preserving histories, documenting artistic legacies, and fostering connection across cultures through music and storytelling.”

This is what it looks like to lead with service beyond self. 🔗 Invest in Scholars like Christina: donate.ptf.org.
