Exploring Music with Bill McGlaughlin
You and the Night and the Music
Novelists have built their plots around great music. Join us as we step into the minds of authors trying to describe the feelings and emotions of music. We begin with an inspiring mandolin and the letters of T.S. Eliot. In Thursday’s program, Bill tells the story of a violin maker and part-time sleuth who has a nostalgic longing for Bach. Dvorák falls in love. An author reminisces about his father’s final journey with Beethoven. We end our travels through literature and music with a dream of the devil and E.M. Forster’s vision of Beethoven from Howard’s End.
8:00 - 10:00 pm
