Learn about Dave’s “Music and Nature” hikes for BCAS and Boulder Phil here.

For thousands of years, the night and the moon have inspired poets, romantics, musicians and scientists alike. How do you musically capture something as ethereal as moonlight and starlight? Naturalist Dave Sutherland will guide a gentle journey from sunset into the light of the rising full moon with a varied selection of classical music inspired by our silvery celestial neighbor, interspersed with modern-day science. And with a little luck, there will be a flickering surprise! Goosebumps encouraged.

Where to meet: Meet at the Sawhill Ponds parking lot - info and directions here.
