 About this Performance

How does sense of place influence music?

In what way do domestic musical traditions shape the distinctive sound of a place in time, and how do composers weave together tradition and innovation to create something that is distinctly theirs?

Discover the ways that composers draw inspiration, from how folk tunes influenced Beethoven to how uniquely American experiences shaped the sonic landscape of 20th and 21st century American composition. Explore these questions with musicians from the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra and PSO Executive Vice President and COO, Marty Bates, in a casual evening of entertainment at the Westmoreland Museum of American Art.

The program begins at 7 PM but be sure to arrive early to experience the Frank Lloyd Wright’s Southwestern Pennsylvania exhibit, which is included in your ticket purchase.

Tickets are $20 members/$25 non-members and must be purchased in advance through the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra here.
Advanced registration is required.
