Impressionism: An Exploration in Music, Art, and Literature In-Person
Join us for a unique presentation that brings together a live performance of flute and piano, as well as art from the Impressionist period and Literature.
Caryn Block, DMA., will present a live performance and discussion of the Impressionist period composers for the flute, their lasting contributions and finally, twentieth contemporary works for solo flute influenced by this school. Through viewing art prints and listening to live flute performance of such works as Debussy's "Syrinx," based on the myth of Pan, Honegger's "Danse de la Chèvre," Jacque Ibert’s “Pièce” and two works by Caryn Block, based on a Greek myth as depicted in a poem by Edith Wharton and "Garden Music" based on paintings by Robert Zakanitch, along with short impressionist works for the piano, a portrait of impressionism in art and music will be painted for the audience.
