Virginia composers have always had a strong presence at Staunton Music Festival. This season we celebrate those diverse voices with music, of course, as well as conversation. In the second of two "Virginia Soundscape" programs, three composers will share thoughts about their stylistic evolution and the current state of art music in the Commonwealth and beyond. Event includes a performance of music for solo percussion by Casey Cangelosi.
