Join a new generation of classical music enthusiasts BECOME A MEMBER OF THE AMFS SALON TODAY!
the Salon Aspen—a community full of innovators, leaders, and artists—is built upon the Aspen Idea and provides the perfect foundation for the AMFS Salon. The Salon serves to enlighten and nurture a new generation of classical music enthusiasts by providing a space for intellectual and social exchange through uniquely curated artistic and cultural events. Join the Salon in 2019 for our Season of Mindfulness. This summer, we will embark on a journey together to delve into the relationship between classical music and the art of bringing our attention to the present moment.
THE MINDFULNESS OF OPERA: A COLLABORATION WITH ASPEN WORDS
MINDFUL MOVEMENT AND MUSIC: A COLLABORATION WITH LEAD WITH LOVE
SATURDAY, JULY 27 | 5 PM Join composer and performer Missy Mazzoli—called “one of the more consistently inventive, surprising composers now working in New York” by The New York Times—and prolific librettist Royce Vavrek in an exploration of their latest opera, Proving Up. A 90-minute, intriguing discussion that dives into the process of creating your passion while maintaining peace and equanimity— or at least the illusion of it! Take part in this riveting conversation, followed by a live, sneak preview of scenes from Proving Up.
THURSDAY, AUGUST 15 | 5 PM Discover the space where classical music meets mindfulness through the physical, mental, and spiritual practice of yoga. This two-hour workshop will feature a seamlessly integrated yoga experience—led by Gina Murdock and Nicole Lindstrom of Lead with Love—accompanied by carefully-curated music performances from top AMFS musicians. Join us for this unforgettable experience and learn about the training, process, and flow involved in each of these time-honored traditions. Sessions suitable for beginners, as well as intermediate and advanced practitioners.
