Hermitage Sunsets @ Selby Gardens: “Music on the Wind” with Hermitage Fellows Emi Ferguson and James M. Stephenson, Thursday, January 25, 5pm: Juilliard-trained flutist Emi Ferguson redefines what it means to be a contemporary musician: mastering not only her instrument, but its history and impact on the broader artistic landscape. Originally from the Chicago area, Hermitage Fellow James Stephenson earned his stripes over 17 seasons in the Naples Philharmonic to become a celebrated composer whose work has covered multiple genres, age groups, instruments, and oceans. From his award-winning compositions for the Marine Band to residences and world premieres with some of the best orchestras across the country, his music speaks to something universal in us all. Hear selections from both gifted musician composers and gain direct insight into the composition process from the artists themselves at Selby Gardens’ downtown Sarasota campus. Presented in partnership with Venice Symphony and Marie Selby Botanical Gardens. Registration is required at HermitageArtistRetreat.org ($5/person registration fee). Marie Selby Botanical Gardens, 1534 Mound St, Sarasota, FL 34236
