Oct. 9, 2024: Concordia Conservatory will present its opening show of the 2024-25 UNIQUE Series season, “Time” for Music, on Saturday, November 2 at three locations: The Reformed Church of Bronxville at 10 am (180 Pondfield Rd), Concordia Conservatory Stamford at 1 pm (884 Newfield Ave) and at the New Canaan Public Library at 3pm (151 Main St).
UNIQUE concert tickets are $6 for children/seniors and $12 for adults. To purchase, visit www.concordiaconservatory.org or call 203-595-5059 / 914-395-4507.
The UNIQUE Series is an interactive music experience created specifically for neurodiverse children and adults. This musical show encapsulates a musical time machine as we explore the unique qualities of rhythm, beat, and tempo.
The audience will join the journey through different eras and cultures, discovering how time shapes the music we love.
The show is written and hosted by Concordia Conservatory faculty Rami Vamos, and performed by a string quartet of Conservatory faculty, Emanouil Manolov and Emily Kalish, violins, Lukas Shrout, viola, and Jonathan Kim, cello.
Conservatory ambassadors for the UNIQUE Series are Kathleen Moriarty, Lilly Slaughter, and Ashton Turner.
The show will engage audiences with elements of music therapy and family friendly humor while making classical music accessible to the individuals, their families and caregivers, in three intimate concert settings, bringing this truly “unique” live music experience to our neurodiverse community.
