Miki Sawada Piano Concert and Gather Hear Louisiana Film Screening Wednesday, October 11 $18 Member / $20 General Admission Doors 6pm / Event 7pm All ages / Seated Join us to explore how classical music intertwines with America through the lens of pianist Miki Sawada. Through her Gather Hear Tour, Miki travels to all 50 states with a piano, performing in community gathering spaces, finding what we might have in common in a divided country. Her Gather Hear mission is to bring high quality live classical music to communities across socioeconomic and political boundaries. In 2022, She made stops in Louisiana with a U-Haul and an upright piano, performing spontaneously anywhere people would listen. We will screen the short film about this adventure, which premiered at Independent Film Festival Boston. Miki will also perform solo piano works by Florence Price, George Walker, and Franz Schubert. The evening will close with a brief talkback with the artist.
