Explore the many ways music makes us feel and helps us understand our emotions during this one-hour chamber music performance. The musicians will speak about how each piece makes them feel or inspires them, while board-certified music therapists from Tidewater Music Therapy assist participants in activities to engage their own emotions and creativity.
