Performance: The Alloy Horn Quartet

The Alloy Horn Quartet is pleased to combine their virtuosic musical talents, training in meditation, and the latest research on physiological regulation to offer Soothing Sounds. This unique program integrates the resonant sounds of the french horn, mindfulness practices, and discussion on nervous system modulation to create an atmosphere of peace and wellbeing. In addition to a beautiful concert experience, the audience will learn about the mitigating effects that music and meditation have on stress, chronic illness, and emotional dysregulation.

About the Artist:

THE ALLOY HORN QUARTET is a fusion of artistry and advocacy whose appealing performances are charming audiences from the concert hall to the backyard party. Equally comfortable in classical and contemporary genres, the quartet is at ease sharing its passion for music through exceptional performing and charismatic dialogue to disarm the rigidity of a traditional classical music experience. Through their programming, Alloy uses the musical medium to amplify women’s voices and explore music as a modality for promoting mental health and wellness.
