Since ancient times, music has been heard to reflect the resonances of the natural world. Over time, composers of many cultures have taken inspiration from Nature and found ways of expressing it through sound. Get inside the music, including several Nature-inspired works to be heard on Festival programs this season by Vivaldi, Mendelssohn, Schubert, Dvořák, Vaughan-Williams, Gabriela Lena Frank, and Chickasaw composer Jerod Impichchaachaaha’ Tate; and learn how your appreciation of Nature might aid your musical understanding. Hear exclusive live performances by Festival artists and mingle with your fellow music enthusiasts and Nature lovers afterward over a glass of wine.
Four weekly sessions are led by Artistic Director, Aaron Wunsch, who teaches at The Juilliard School.
Four Tuesdays, 7/29 – 8/19, 4:00-5:00 PM
After the lecture there will be a small wine reception.
This event is free and no ticket is required.
