The Aurea Ensemble will present two free programs titled Reflections on Rilke, first on Monday, April 12 at Brown (Part 1) and then on Sunday, April 18 at RISD (Part 2).

From Aurea's website: If you are interested in the inter-relatedness of the arts, in
philosophy and psychology, in the incredible artistic, cultural and
sociological upheaval and transformation of the early 20th century,
whether you've ever read a word of Rilke or not, we invite you to
immerse yourself in Rilke's work and world, his poetry, letters and
prose, as we simultaneously explore the great impact and resonance
Rilke's work continues to exert into the 21st century.

Music Haven's website received a major overhaul last month. If you haven't already checked out CMW's sister organization–build around the neighborhood residency of the Haven String Quartet–in New Haven, now you've got an excuse.
