Music@Menlo Summer Festival: The World According to Winds
Oboist extraordinaire James Austin Smith leads Music@Menlo audiences on a journey through musical history from a wind player’s perspective. For the first time at the festival, the evolution of wind instruments is revealed, from their beginnings some 40,000 years ago to their coming of age during the Renaissance. From the physics of producing sound, to the evolution of wind technology, to the great players who inspired composers and immortal compositions–this is sure to be one of Music@Menlo’s most memorable Encounters.
The Jim and Mical Brenzel Encounter Series invites you to go beyond the concert hall and explore the heart of chamber music. Led by top musicians and thinkers, these evening talks explore the themes of each festival with great stories, insights, and musical moments. Whether you’re a longtime fan or just getting into chamber music, you’ll come away inspired.
