THE NEW WORLD

Nov 11 at KMFA | Nov 12 at First Unitarian Church

Nature or Nurture? How much does social environment and locale influence brave, renegade artists? Dvorak, Bartok, and Stravinsky all traveled miles across the sea to reach the New World… but what new ideas were provided to these visionaries? Take a deep dive into the convergence of genius and inspiration in this exploration of cross-cultural influence. Featuring clarinetist James Shields, violinist David Felberg, and pianist Michelle Schumann.
