This fall, the Midday Music for Organ series presents Soundtracks to Six Chapters in the History of the Organ. Each of the six Wednesday lunchtime recitals follows a different theme, juxtaposing the ancient with the contemporary, the Baroque with the modern, and the old with the new.
Hosted by the Cornell Center for Historical Keyboards and Cornell University's Department of Music, the Chamber Music Collective (CMC) returns to Ithaca this June, presenting three evening concerts that explore the theme of “recreation”—a concept that embraces renewal, transformation, and the collaborative spirit of musical performance.
