SUMMARY:BEYOND THE NOTES COLLABORATES WITH AUREA ENSEMBLE FOR AN EVENING OF WORDS AND MUSIC!
DESCRIPTION:How exciting would it be to engage with top musicians during a live performance? At Beyond the Notes​\, a long-running\, uniquely interactive concert series\, audience members can submit questions to performers and receive answers in real time.  \nFor this ninth season\, Beyond the Notes is proud to present their next concert on November 16th at 7:30 PM at First Parish Church in Concord. Renowned violinist and Concord native Sarah Whitney will join members of AUREA ensemble for an eclectic concert that combines poetry with classical\, folk and contemporary music. This audience-favorite program\, titled Listen!\, embraces the relationship of sound\, nature\, music and poetry. Enjoy music by Bach\, Dohnanyi\, Piazzolla\, Caroline Shaw\, as well as Chris Turner’s brilliant harmonica improvisations\, illuminating words of Linda Pastan\, Wendell Berry\, Galway Kinnell\, Federico Garcia Lorca and more.  \nBut Beyond the Notes is not just about the music—it’s about connection. Get ready to embark on a journey of discovery as the artists invite you to peek behind the curtain\, sharing personal stories and insights that go beyond their bios. During the show\, you’ll have the chance to engage directly with the artists by submitting your questions\, which will be answered live on stage. Artistic Director and Founder Sarah Whitney says\, “Too often there is a boundary between the performers and the audience. Beyond the Notes is an experience that breaks down that wall.” This interactive element is just one of the features that makes Beyond the Notes unlike any other concert. To set the stage for this unique experience\, prelude music will showcase students from the Concord Conservatory of Music\, along with artwork from Powers Gallery. \nPraised by The Washington Post for her “marvelous violin acrobatics\,” Sarah Whitney is a widely recognized performer\, teacher\, speaker and Career Coach for Musicians.
