Located in Fishtail, Montana, Tippet Rise celebrates the concept of art, music, architecture, and nature being inextricably linked in the human experience — thus each making the other more powerful.
Premiering nightly at 8:00PM (ET) between August 19th and 22nd, here on The Violin Channel, this year's virtual celebration brings together a collection of scenic classical music performances from picturesque locations, including a tractor barn in Colorado, the Cyclopean House in Massachusetts to the Noguchi Museum in New York.
"Tippet Rise is an oasis for artists and audiences alike," Artistic Advisor, Pedja Muzijevic, recently told The Violin Channel.
"And, the music isn’t about notes, any more than poetry is about words. Notes and words and the angles of a sculpture are just the shadows of the essences which hide behind them," he said.
