On Saturday, April 19 at 1 PM, Network for New Music, the Department of Music, and the Arboretum present Eve Beglarian鈥檚 "A Murmur in the Trees", an outdoor concert in celebration of Earth Day

This 30-minute long work for 24 solo double bassists playing in the woods was written for the late bassist Robert Black, a beloved champion of contemporary music. Based on the naturally occurring etchings on a piece of birch bark, the work transmutes these marks of growth and change into a choreographed atmosphere of quiet, slowly changing harmonies. During the performance, the audience wanders through the players, the trees, and the music鈥攅ach individual's journey creating a different path through the work.

This concert will take place on the Nature Trail at Haverford College between the Visitors鈥� parking lot and College Lane. All are welcome. Parking is available in the Visitors' and South parking lots. Rain location will be the Michael Jaharis Recital Hall.
