Workshop | Intro Class: Intuition and the Chakras - Unlocking the Hidden Power Within


With: Kyle McDonald Chakra (“wheel” in Sanskrit) is a spinning vortex of vibration, light and energy, located in the very center of our being: the Astral Spine and Brain. Awareness and experience of this sacred energy can help facilitate meaningful change and transformation in our lives. Throughout our day we receive inner guidance and process information through the chakras, a natural process that we most often take for granted, or are unaware of. In this class you will use a combination of chanting, pranayama, asana, meditation and self inquiry, as taught by Paramahansa Yogananda, author of the spiritual classic, Autobiography of a Yogi, to reawaken your awareness of this sacred energy and to cultivate the practice of listening to divine guidance from within. No experience with yoga or meditation required.

Concert | Composer Dai Bo presents his Space-Time Continuum-Pro et Contra


Space-Time Continuum-Pro et Contra is a contemporary chamber concerto composed by Dai Bo for thirteen wind and string instruments, with the harpsicord taking center stage. The ultra-traditionalist style of this piece expresses an aesthetic pursuit of the specialization of time. The violin combines overtone and vibrato with bow playing; the harpsichord's presentation is bantering, with dissonance; the oboe adds a tinge of tragedy. Each instrument finds its their place in the complex rhythms and irregular syntax of this unique piece, which mimics a phonograph playing at an unstable tempo, the needle jumping from time to time, creating an ethereal effect. This piece is an attempt to bring time and space away from lineal movement. It is a dialogue between European musical languages and traditional East Asian music, and between Baroque concerto grosso and chamber concertos with twentieth-century characteristics. Followed by a reception.
