SUMMARY:Stories Behind the Music
DESCRIPTION: Transition to Modern Times (Listening Session)\nThere is a human life behind every piece of art. \nStories Behind the Music is a curated listening and concert series I created to explore classical music as a living story—shaped by real people\, their friendships\, struggles\, and the world they lived in. \n100 Years of Stories\nOn March 29th\, we gather to explore the Transition to Modern Times. \nI will share stories that cover the entire journey of the 20th century—from the late 19th century all the way to the year 2000. We will talk about how history changed and how composers found new ways to express their world. \nA Mysterious Masterpiece\nBecause the music of this era is so powerful and deep\, we will dedicate our entire listening time to one single\, monumental composition from a curated recording. \nThis “hidden gem” was written in 1999\, at the very end of the century. It is a profound bridge between the old world and the new. I am keeping the title a surprise for now\, but we will experience this massive work together in the quiet of the sanctuary. \nYour Guide to Modern Times\nAs with our previous sessions\, I am preparing a personal guide for you to take home. This guide isn’t just about one piece; it covers the entire transitional period. It includes my personal recommendations for: \n\nEssential modern classical music\nMovies that capture the spirit of the era\nBooks to help you dive deeper into the history\n\nWhat to Expect\n\nA Century in Stories: A brief history of music from the late 1800s to the turn of the millennium.\nThe “1999” Mystery: A deep-dive listening session of one major work that defines the end of the century.\nA Take-Home Guide: My curated list of music\, films\, and books to help you explore this era on your own.\nSocial Connection: Stay after the session for light refreshments\, snacks\, and conversation.\n\nEvent Details\n\nWhen: Sunday\, March 29th | 2:00 PM\nWhere: Hillside United Church (Sanctuary)\nAdmission: Free (Registration requested)\n\nSave the Date: Join us for our series finale: a live Piano Trio concert on April 19th at 2:00 PM\, featuring music by Dvořák\, Rachmaninoff\, Debussy\, Piazzolla\, and more! \nWith Gratitude\nThis project would not be possible without the ongoing support of the United Church of Canada Foundation and the Hillside United Church team. Thank you for providing the space and care to make this happen. \nSpecial thanks to the Royal Bank of Canada for their generous donation\, which keeps this program free and accessible to everyone. \nPlease reserve your spot so we can plan refreshments and seating accordingly.
