The MSU College of Music and Beal Botanical Garden invite you to this year’s Music and the Garden series, an outdoor celebration of music, nature, and community. This season explores Beal's Rewilding initiative, with each event engaging one of the four classical elements—Air, Water, Fire, and Earth—highlighting Michigan native plants, their ecological roles, and connections to human history, while featuring theme‑inspired performances and opportunities to learn how environmentally sustainable practices can be incorporated into everyday life.Grounded in the theme of Earth, this program connects music to origins, place, and the roots from which artistic expression grows.
Hands‑on activities take place prior to the performance. Visitors are welcome to bring chairs or blankets. In case of weather, the performance will move indoors to the MSU Music Building. This is a FREE event, the ticket link is for registration to let us know you're coming!
THE TAYOVAN TRIO
The Tayovan Trio takes its name from the Siraya word Tayouan, meaning “that piece of land,” a reflection of the ensemble’s shared roots and connection to place. Formed by three Taiwanese musicians and doctoral performance students at the MSU College of Music, the trio brings diverse musical voices together in a unified chamber music vision. Actively engaged in orchestral, wind band, and chamber settings, Tayovan Trio presents performances shaped by cultural identity, artistic curiosity, and a commitment to sharing meaningful contemporary music across communities.
Ensemble members: Hannah Hsu, violin; Te-Fen Cheng, clarinet; Shih-Wen Chiu, piano.
