Discovering the Music of Paintings

  • Las Placitas Presbyterian Church 7 Paseo De San Antonio Road Placitas, NM, 87043 United States (map)

PLACITAS, NM: Join conductor and educator Oliver Prezant, violinist Carla Kountoupes, clarinetist Jerry Weimer, and cellist Katie Harlow for an interactive exploration of an evocative, abstract painting by acclaimed artist Dianna Shomaker. During the program, Oliver will invite audience members to share thoughts and feelings about aspects of line, shape, color, texture, and the mood of the painting, which he and the musicians will turn into music. By the end of the program, we’ll be able to use the painting as a musical score as we create an original musical piece based on the audience’s impressions of the painting.

The program will take place in the fellowship hall of Las Placitas Presbyterian Church at 3 p.m. on Sunday, June 9, with a pre-event reception beginning at 2 p.m. The church is located at 7 Paseo De San Antonio Rd. in Placitas. 

This event is a fundraiser for the Placitas Artists Series.
