An exhilarating jet boat ride down the Colorado River brings listeners to a pristine wilderness grotto carved from the surrounding red rocks for an inspiring “once-in-a-lifetime” experience (Fodors). These MMF signature events weave a rich sonic tapestry of music with one of the most stunning natural environments imaginable, combining the beauty of music with the area’s scenic wonders.
The timeless music of J.S. Bach is a perfect match for the Grotto on the Colorado River. The abstract beauty and order of Bach complement the geological wonder sculpted by the elements through time. Award-winning pianist Claire Huangci performs Toccatas from her recent recording.
