Environmental Studies Institute: “What A Wonderful World” Song Club with Jazimina MacNeil

Wednesday, January 6
7:00 pm to 8:00 pm

Like a book club, but with songs! Come Zoom with us around a treasure trove of songs written by great artists who drew inspiration from the natural world, from Schubert to Amy Beach to Stevie Wonder. Each month we’ll listen to new songs and explore the poetry, musical techniques, and personal history of these poets and composers who capture our kaleidoscope of human feeling and turn it into sound. Each class will include time for discussion and an optional prompt for creative reflection, inviting your own artistic impulses to flow.

This group will meet on Wednesdays, January 6, February 3, and March 3, from 7 to 8 p.m. via Zoom.

Cost for the series: $20 for Harris Center supporters or Electric Earth Concerts donors / $30 all others

Instructor: Mezzo-soprano Jazimina MacNeil has spent most of her life reveling in song and loves nothing more than delving into the liminal spaces where art and the natural world intersect. She has spearheaded two other collaborations between the Harris Center and Electric Earth Concerts (The Singing Stream and Danika the Rose).
