SUMMARY:Stuart Bogie & Buck McDaniel Concert
DESCRIPTION:Stoneleigh: a natural garden and Bowerbird present a concert featuring composer-clarinetist Stuart Bogie and composer-keyboardist Buck McDaniel\, continuing their acclaimed collaboration that began with the 2024 project November Variations.   \nFirst conceived in 2024\, November Variations began as a series of five improvised concerts at New York’s Church of Our Saviour\, recorded live to capture each composition as it unfolded. The resulting five-part album is being released in parts leading up to the 2025 five-concert residency in Manhattan\, November 17 – 21.  \nThe duo performs for clarinet and organ\, melding contemporary American minimalism\, drones\, and rapturous melodies. McDaniel’s expansive organ voicings and deft melodic interplay provide a dynamic landscape for Bogie’s clarinet\, creating an immersive\, horizonless sound.  \nThis November 14th performance at Stoneleigh offers an opportunity to experience the duo’s ethos of stillness\, connection\, and sonic exploration in two distinct instrumental settings.  \nAbout the Artists  \nComposer and multi-instrumentalist Stuart Bogie was born in Evanston\, Illinois. He studied for six Years with Gary Onstad and at the Music Center of the North Shore before attending Interlochen Art Academy and the University of Michigan where he studied with Debra Chodacki. He is the recipient of a Meet the Composer grant\, and he composed the score for the Oscar-nominated documentary How To Survive a Plague\, featuring performances by the Kronos Quartet. He has written for film\, television\, commercials\, and the stage. He has released nine albums as a leader.  \n******  \nBuck McDaniel is a composer\, conductor\, keyboardist\, and improviser based in New York City. His music blends the American Minimalist tradition with a personal storytelling practice. McDaniel’s work often explores site\, text\, and memory\, engaging both concert\, sacred\, and non-traditional spaces with equal depth and curiosity.   \nHis compositions have been performed and broadcast internationally\, including on NBC’s Saturday Night Live\, BBC Radio 3\, WQXR\, and NPR’s The Moth Radio Hour. His work appears in Oliver Hermanus’s film The History of Sound\, starring Paul Mescal and Josh O’Connor\, which premiered at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival. A frequent collaborator\, McDaniel has worked with artists including Sam Smith\, Nico Muhly\, Sam Amidon\, and Stuart Bogie.

SUMMARY:Nature as Healer: A Writing Workshop - Sold Out
DESCRIPTION:This event is sold out. Please join us for a future event. \n“The people cannot be healed until the land is healed. The land cannot be healed until the people are healed by the land.” – Martin Prechtel  \n  Nature can be a great healer for the heartaches we all experience along our journey. Join Naila Francis\, founder of This Hallowed Wilderness\, for a writing workshop to explore the restorative power of nature.   \n Together\, we will walk through the shady woods and sunny meadows of Gwynedd Preserve\, listening to our inner voices\, on this inspiring nature immersion that also invites us into reciprocal relationship with the land and our more-than-human kin.    \n Bring a notebook and a writing instrument for this workshop. (We will also have some available.)    \n You will be invited to share whatever you wish in a “sacred circle\,” but this is not required. The intent of this event is to bring people together\, whatever their losses and struggles\, and to connect with others and the natural world at their own comfort level.   \n Our stroll through the woods will be silent\, followed by some meditative time in the Betz Memorial Garden\, and quiet reflection.   \n Please save the rain date in the event of inclement weather: Sunday\, November 2\, 1:00 – 3:00 PM.   \n About our instructor: Naila is a grief coach and death midwife who companions people on their grief journey through multiple spaces and practices\, including meditations in nature and the written word.
