The Knights return to Wethersfield Estate and Garden for a second year for a concert for children and families. This concert will call on children to notice the natural beauty of nature – such as birds, the original virtuoso musicians, sending out coded signals through their songs Recent studies have suggested that hearing “enjoyable music” lights up the same mesolimbic reward pathway for both human beings and birds. The program features songs and dances from a diverse group of composers, musical genres, and cultures, much of which either directly or indirectly take their cue from birds, butterflies, and other natural emblems of flight and the yearning for freedom. Children are encouraged to get up and move to the music, to ask questions, and to meet the musicians.
