Teresa Winner Blume Gives the "Gift of Song" at the MFA

Posted on March 16, 2015 by College Communications in Faculty.

Teresa Winner Blume, applied voice faculty member at Gordon, is being featured at a current Museum of Fine Arts exhibit, “Sonic Blossom" (3/11 - 4/9). The performance art piece, which takes place in the MFA's William I. Koch Gallery, is the brainchild of the world-renowned artist Lee Mingwei, and features some of the most beloved of all of Schubert's art songs. As patrons enjoy the artwork, the Singer (Blume) wanders among them. She selects a museum patron, and asks if the patron would like to receive a gift of song. If they agree, they are led to a special chair designed by the artist; the Singer performs one of five Schubert lieder for the guest. Listen to an excerpt of Teresa's performance, read a review in the Boston Globe, and visit her website for more complete information about performance dates and times.
