What is music? A collection of frequencies that shiver the air around us and connect deeply with the human brain. This short concert explore the concept of musical frequencies and the power of music to either “unjam” or further amplify whatever particular emotional channel we are on. 

This special concert was a prelude to the opening of Frequency Hopping: A Women’s Exhibition on Saturday, January 8th, 2022. Melodia Mariposa presented a 30-minute program of music that explores emotions as well as a conversation to share music and moods featuring Amy Hershberger and Aaron Oltman on violin and viola. They presented a short, program of highly contrasting musical tableaus to enhance the perception through pitch.
