“Join us for an exceptional concert that explores the relationship among landscape, landscape architecture, and music, a program born of an unprecedented creative collaboration between George Steel, Abrams Curator of Music, and Charles Waldheim, Ruettgers Curator of Landscape and professor at Harvard Graduate School of Design.
Hear the prologue to Alceste, performed for Louis XIV in the gardens of Versailles. Beatrix Farrand’s plans for the gardens of a historic estate inspired Shaw’s piece, and Ives’s work captures the sounds of New York’s Central Park. This program is inspired by our founder’s long engagement with the natural world and love of the art of landscape and horticulture, and is performed by the Isabella Ensemble, the Olmsted Quartet, and special guests with conductor Julius Williams.”
