Place shapes us – through their landscapes, architecture, and atmosphere, and sometimes, through a single moment of light or sound. Songs About Place invites us to hear how a setting is transformed into sound, and how a place, in all its forms, becomes a unique experience.

Songs About Place

Pasadena Conservatory of Music

This season, PCM presents three Musical Interludes concerts inspired by scenes and sounds from the natural world: Water, Night, and Forest.

From the Natural World | Water

This season, Musical Interludes explores the work and legacies of three influential music educators: Antonio Salieri, Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, and Nadia Boulanger. We conclude the season with Nadia Boulanger, a revolutionary educator who made a profound impact on the development of classical and contemporary music in the 20th Century by nurturing the talents of many notable composers. Hosted by PCM faculty member and KUSC host, Brian Lauritzen.
