Songs for the Earth
Taking inspiration from our relationship with the natural world, Artistic Directors Melinda Lee Masur and Ken-David Masur present— “Songs For The Earth,” which explores the many ways the arts can bring attention to the needs of our changing planet.
Events ranging from chamber music, art song, jazz, and daytime outreach will foster ecological awareness and focus on the earth as our shared home.
