Raquel Klein leads an Oliveros Tuning Meditation followed by a conversation about her life as both a musician and a visual artist. The Oliveros Tuning Meditation brings people together by asking participants to listen to each other and contribute to the music by matching a pitch with one you hear. Sign up to participate in this interactive performance for both musicians and non-musicians alike. No prior experience necessary.
