How do we listen for the beauty of the music and the unique intentions of each composer? There are many dimensions to our inner landscapes - how we feel sensations, images, words, and sounds. Join me in exploring how concert music can connect us to other people, places, times, and ourselves, to create your own associations! 6 composers, 5 dimensions of listening, 2 venues.

*View a new dimension of phrasing and changes in harmonic colors by noticing when the camera angles change.

*Steinway Artist Hsing-ay Hsu is an international prizewinner, concert producer, teacher/educator, studio owner, and adjudicator, who joyfully shares the power of music to build multidimensional awareness
and to make sense of the human experience. She has performed at prestigious venues including Carnegie Hall, Kennedy Center, Lincoln Center, and in Europe & Asia. Born in Beijing, Ms. Hsu trained at Juilliard and Yale. She is owner of Nutmeg Studio NYC, host of a YouTube channel and Conscious Listening™ Café webinars, and was a faculty member at the University of Colorado for fourteen years before recently returning to New York.
