Pianist Danae Doerken joins us “at” Saint-Gaudens National Historical Park from Germany for this groundbreaking concert presented in collaboration with the West Claremont Center for Music and the Arts. You will experience the concert in “Augmented Reality” as though we are all together on the lawn at Aspet. This program features classical works heavily influenced by folk music from East to West by Chopin, Bartok, Schubert, de Falla, and more.
Danae Doerken will join us after the concert on zoom for a post concert chat. This concert will be streamed from your smart phone/smart device of choice through your favorite headphones. Information for creating an optional DIY headset will be available. Tickets to access the concert and post concert chat are free and available through wcc-ma.org/virtualconcerts starting on Wed July 22nd.
Donations are deeply appreciated. All proceeds will be split to support Saint-Gaudens Memorial and West Claremont Center for Music and the Arts.
What do you do when your graduation recital is cancelled due to the COVID19 pandemic? You invite the entire community to a performance they can attend from their couches!
