Drawn To Music- Improvisation meets Synesthesia meets Life with Lennie Peterson and Wayne Naus

Presented by the Cultural Center of Cape Cod on Saturday, June 24, at 7:30pm.

Returning to the Cultural Center for 2023, Lennie Peterson and Wayne Naus. This is an event like no other. With an interactive presentation, Peterson will create one of his large composer portraits in front of his audience while accompanied by the music of pianist and composer Wayne Naus.  During the presentation, Peterson will discuss his creative process involving the concept of improvisation in music and visual art as well as his neurological condition called “synesthesia,” a phenomenon in which two or more of the five senses are attached in unusual ways. Peterson “sees” music and translates the shapes, colors, and images of that music onto his canvas. At the end of the one-hour presentation, Peterson will join Naus on the trombone to perform a musical selection related to the portrait that was created. There will be a Q and A and open discussion at the end of the night. Complimentary wine and cheese are included. Visit the Cultural Center’s website for information on their COVID policy.

$25. For reservations, visit www.cultural-center.org or call 508-394-7100. The Cultural Center of Cape Cod, 307 Old Main Street, South Yarmouth.
