‘Harmony in the Hills’ concert at SMU-In-Taos to feature American composer's world premiere
Talented musicians from SMU’s Meadows School of the Arts will present a free chamber music concert, "Harmony in the Hills," Saturday, July 16, at SMU-in-Taos.
The concert will take place at 8:15 p.m. in O’Donnell Auditorium on the Fort Burgwin campus of SMU-in-Taos, 6850 Hwy. 518.
"The Ima Leete Hutchison concert is a musical treat that the entire Taos community looks forward to each summer," says Mike Adler, executive director of SMU-in-Taos. "There are many music venues in town each summer, but this one is special because it highlights brilliant SMU students who always impress the local community with the breadth of their skills and expertise. It's also one of the rare concerts that is completely free and open to the public."
The Ima Leete Hutchison Concert is featured each year at Fort Burgwin during the SMU-in-Taos Cultural Institute, two and a half days of short courses that explore the unique cultural richness, scientific contributions and recreational opportunities of Northern New Mexico. The concert series is made possible by an endowment established in 1989 by William and Patsy Hutchison in honor of Mr. Hutchison’s mother.
