SANTA FE, NM: How does a painting sound? How do line and shape, color and texture, mood and compositional relationships translate into music? Join conductor and arts educator Oliver Prezant, violinist Carla Kountoupes, clarinetist Jerry Weimer, and cellist Katie Harlow for an interactive, musical exploration of an abstract painting by renowned Diné (Navajo) artist Tony Abeyta, whose work is featured in numerous museum collections nationwide. During the program, you’ll have a chance to share your thoughts and feelings as we create original music based on your impressions of the artwork. The artist will be present during the event.
