Immerse yourself in the cool, blue waters of the Weidner Philharmonic’s oceanic performance! This multimedia program features atmospheric lighting effects and recordings pulled from aquatic habitats to complement the music. By turns meditative and mysterious, this music explores the nature of water, its power, and our relationship to it.
