Musical Interludes | Loss Transformed

This season, PCM's signature concert series, Musical Interludes, explores themes centered around transformation. Lived experience shapes how we view ourselves, informs how we evolve, and often inspires creativity. Some of music’s most transformative works are expressions of great personal loss: a loved one, health, one’s voice. Performed on October 31, his program demonstrates how the experience of grief can transcend into unimaginable beauty. 00:07 Stephen Cook, Executive Director 01:50 Brian Lauritzen, host Clara Schumann | Three Romances for Violin and Piano, Op. 22 | Aimée Kreston, violin, and Kathryn Eames, piano 07:07 I.
