Other Special Events and Performances
A MURMUR IN THE TREES
Tuesday, August 20 | 7:30-8 PM
Composer Eve Beglarian was inspired by an Emily Dickinson poem and a piece of birch bark to create "A Murmur in the Trees," a 30-minute work that features 24 double bass players spread throughout a grove of trees. The birch bark is used as a musical score that determines the sounds the basses create and where the players are located. The audience is welcomed to walk throughout the park to hear the music from different places, hearing some basses nearby and some quite far away.
