We wanted to create a concert that focuses on that meditative space—the one where the mind can wander when it enters a state of “flow.” Most people are familiar with this state: the flow we experience when we are deeply focused on work or study, or during exercise, when the mind quiets and it is all about the body moving. Perhaps it is the same flow we feel when spending time with friends or loved ones, where time is literally flying. How liberating and freeing that feeling is!

Instead of choosing well-known pieces, the kind you might find on a Spotify playlist titled “Classical Music for Studying” or something similar (no hate), we have delved into the archives to uncover works that are less familiar. These pieces offer a different and more modern perspective on what calm or meditative classical music can be.
