Summer Salon: Mozart’s Arias for Aloysia

The Brattleboro Music Center presents a series of Summer Salons exploring the magic and method behind master musical works. Led by longtime BMC faculty member Moby Pearson, the salons will be held Thursdays at 6:30 p.m. in the air-conditioned BMC. Pearson will share remarkable recordings of music from across the ages – and share new musical perspectives along the way!

August 10 – Mozart’s Arias for Aloysia

Wolfgang fell head over heels for his 17-year-old student Aloysia Weber in 1777. Though there was hardly romantic reciprocation on her part, the seven arias which came from their musical connection reveal a range of virtues, from exquisite depth of emotion to stunning coloratura writing.

RSVP’s are encouraged and refreshments provided. Suggested donation is $25. For more information and to register for one or all salons, contact the BMC at 802-257-4523 or email info@bmcvt.org.
