Founded by classical pianist Hunter Noack, IN A LANDSCAPE: Classical Music in the Wild™ is an outdoor concert series where America’s most stunning landscapes replace the traditional concert hall. A 9-foot Steinway grand piano travels on a flatbed trailer to National Parks, urban greenspaces, working ranches, farms, and historical sites for classical music concerts that connect people with each landscape. To meet the acoustical challenges of performing in the wild, sound is transmitted to concert-goers via wireless headphones. Unconfined by seats and walls, audiences explore the landscape in this approachable and deeply moving classical music experience.
For IN A LANDSCAPE’s second visit to the Wood River Valley, the site will be alongside the Big Wood River just south of River Run parking lot along the bike path. Riding your bike is the best way to get there! If you need to drive, park at the Trail Creek lot at River Run.
Since 2016, IN A LANDSCAPE has presented 206 concerts for over 30,000 people, many of whom experienced live classical music for the first time. Inspired by Hunter’s passions, the organization’s mission is to remove barriers to access classical music and the great outdoors.
PLEASE NOTE:
The performance location is a open field and NOT at the River Run Lodge lawn. No chairs provided. Please pack what you need to be comfortable: a blanket, light camping chair, water and a picnic if you’d like. This is a pack it in/pack it out, no footprint event! The performance location is about a 10-minute walk from the River Run parking lot to the site. There will be a porta-pottie at the River Run parking lot, but not at the performance site.
