Description

Music is an art that deals with sound in time. Time is inseparable from music on various levels. There are minutiae such as the cycles per second which determine pitch. In the middle ground, rhythm, tempo and form are ways in which composers and performers affect the audience’s perception of time’s passage. Another journey through time with music involves historical context. Violist Sarah Cote and pianist Kristian Klefstad will illustrate some aspects of music and time with live performance and discussion.
