With all the wonderful music of all types in the world, why spend ten weeks on only one musical creator? And why Beethoven? Haven’t we heard him enough? American composer John Cage once wrote that after he got rid of his preconceptions about Beethoven, he found his music constantly surprising. Brookfield composer and course instructor Erik Nielsen has had the same experience. The way in which Beethoven fearlessly explored beyond the accepted limits of music throughout his life was an inspiration to composers who followed him throughout the 19th century. Even now his music stands out as being fresh, original, and powerful. With 10 weeks we can explore the gold mine of creativity from the early chamber music through Beethoven’s powerful middle period to his late transcendent masterpieces. It ought to be an exciting course!

The historic Pease Farm was in operation for 33 years and now the owner, Sarah, opens her stable to groups who may not otherwise have an opportunity to interact with horses. Residents will have a chance to get up close and personal to several of the horses, and can pet, feed, or groom, these gentle giants.
Join Myrna, one of our very talented residents, for an informal class on watercolor painting. She will guide the group, offering techniques to get you started on your own artistic journey.
