Vigorous Tenderness: a winter solstice concert
Tuesday, December 21st, 5:30-7pm
Broadturn Farm, Scarborough
sliding scale donation, advanced tickets available
Join us for an evening of darkness and light to reconnect with acoustic sound in observance of the winter solstice.
Vigorous Tenderness is an experimental outdoor concert series that amplifies marginalized voices in classical music and democratizes new / experimental music. This winter solstice event resembles an art museum experience, with chamber music and fire illuminating the landscape while the audience follows a path of listening and reflection.
This series highlights POC and queer composers, and features some of Maine's most thoughtful musicians.
Sliding scale donations are welcomed: $0-50 per person
Cash and venmo accepted, everything goes to the musicians and to sustaining future concerts.
