Unseen Wings, Unheard Songs: Music for Oboe and English horn representing National Park sites and lesser-known pollinators

This recital explores National Park sites and lesser-known pollinators through music, expanding both oboe and English horn repertoires and raising environmental awareness. Dr. Miranda will begin with Unseen Wings, Unheard Songs, a series of miniatures for English horn and fixed electronics by Snow Kim, focused on pollinators that are not widely known. Harpist Dr. Hannah Palmquist will join for First Ice on Kabetogama by Julie Johnson, a new work inspired by Voyageurs National Park in Northern Minnesota. The performance will conclude with the premiere of a piece for solo English horn by Grace Baugher-Dunlap about Fort Larned National Historic Site in Western Kansas.
