Nature and Truth at Kendall School of Arts
Sunday 4th July
The next Kendall’s PhiloMusica event celebrates American Independence Day featuring a program of music by Copland, Gershwin, Dvorak and Barber. Renowned Australian Concert Pianist Phillip Shovk returns to Kendall to perform with Jeanell Carrigan and Goetz Richter in a superb program of popular music inspired by nature and truth.
The popular Kendall PhiloMusica series explores music in the context of a discussion of philosophical ideas. On July 4 Goetz will present the thought of Henry Thoreau and Ralph Waldo Emerson – the nineteenth century New England Transcendalists whose thought continued to powerfully influence social and ecological political movements throughout the twentieth century including movements of civil disobedience and the advancement of human rights.
All profits of the concert will benefit the Kendall National Violin Competition. Further dates of the series in 2021 are September 5 and November 7.
