Escape the daily grind and find solace in the quiet beauty of Moab’s canyons, where sublime music meets breathtaking wilderness. Beethoven’s Heiliger Dankgesang, written in gratitude after recovering from a life-threatening illness, radiates a sense of exalted transcendence, making it a favorite for moments of reflection (and a top choice for Desert Island Disc lists). Violist Jessica Bodner performs a work by Tessa Lark, similarly composed to help her during a time of personal grief, while Bach’s luminous E Major Violin Partita dances through the canyon walls. Entrancing Irish and Danish folk melodies rounds out this program, heightening the sense of peace and quietude that only nature can provide.
