Music at the Museum presents The Maestro Experience
with Thomas Lawrence Toscano
The Maestro Experience delivers the audience to new ways of hearing and experiencing music through the works of Beethoven, Mahler and Richard Strauss. It will start you on a path to hear and listen at the “Maestro’s” level; an introduction to connecting with symphonic music. Through the guidance of Thomas Lawrence Toscano, conductor/composer, participants will find themselves drawn into higher levels of listening, as barriers to the expressive energies inherent in this art form are revealed and subsequently dissolved. This unique process opens powerful connections transforming all into a new personal relationship with music.
Please Note: Due to the unique nature of this experience, additional audience members will not be admitted once the program has begun. Please plan to arrive before 2:00.
“[The Maestro Experience] has forever changed my relationship with music.”
“A wonderful introduction to the process of actively listening to classical music.”
“Thank you Thomas for bringing to life the music of Beethoven. With your gestures I “saw” music for the first time and I really heard.”
Artistic Director Thomas Lawrence Toscano.
Conductor/composer and performance specialist, radio show host, and producer of The Listening Shires over WBTNAM, and founder of OperaOGGINY, Toscano has an inspiring history of renowned concerts in Sicily, Italy, South America and the US.
