Journey through nature’s wonders with Patterns from Nature, an immersive multimedia experience merging physics, film, and music.

With captivating visuals set to a composition that blends jazz and classical elements, the performance features a chamber ensemble and renowned soloists: clarinetist François Houle, the Molinari String Quartet, pianists Matt Mitchell and Santiago Leibson, bassist Carlo De Rosa, drummer Satoshi Takeishi and trombonist Ryan Keberle.
