The Summer Sound Garden is the third of composer JG Everest's four part "Water Suite: Four Seasonal Sound Gardens" that premiered in 2018 at four different outdoor sites around Minnesota, each on a significant body of water. The Summer Sound Garden was designed and composed for the island in Silver Lake, at Silverwood Park in St Anthony, MN.
The Summer Sound Garden at Silverwood Park will feature a roving, site-specific movement score performed by dancers Erika Hansen, Suzette Gilreath, Leslie O'Neill, Sarah Baumert, and Megan Mayer, and site-specific poetry written by Chavonn Shen, Teresa Ortiz, and many more.
This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
