Midsummer’s Music will host Clara Takarabe, violist and clinical music researcher with the Feinberg School of Medicine at Northwestern University, for a series of clinical music performances and talks in Door County. The Musical Museum is a dementia-informed life-enrichment program featuring musical performances by Takarabe and the Griffon String Quartet intertwined with commentary and discussion around sound, music and poetry. The program takes care to acknowledge intellectual and social needs of this stage of life.
Clara’s groundbreaking research at Northwestern University is offering scientific proof of what many have long believed—the profound healing power of music and art.
This event is free and open to the public.
Programs are funded in part by grants from the Wisconsin Arts Board, the National Endowment for the Arts, the Little Eddie Big Cup of the Door County Community Foundation, the Kopseker Trust of the Greater Green Bay Community Foundation, the United Way of Door County, and the Bader Foundation.
