Environmentalist composer John Luther Adams’s Crossing Open Ground, an outdoor work for winds, brass and percussion, offers an opportunity to rediscover and reconsecrate place—an invitation to listen to the older, deeper resonances beneath our feet. In the stunning landscape of Snow Canyon State Park, Liquid Music seeks to honor "one of the most original musical thinkers of the new century" (The New Yorker) with a concert fitting to his singular vision and natural world inspiration.
