MUSIC/SCIENCE SUMMER PROGRAM: “HOW THE UNIVERSE SINGS”

DATE: July 14 to August 1, 2025

TIME: Monday-Thursday — 9:30 AM - 3 PM

Design “Thought Experiments” Using Musical Ideas!

Our Foundation Summer Program for 2025 focuses on “the principle of discovery.” Students will be encouraged and prepared to investigate, and to determine for themselves, whether there is a connection between the thought processes underlying what are often separated as “science” and “art.” An intensive three-week course of study will help the student re-live the thought- experiments of scientists like Johannes Kepler and composers like J. S. Bach. We seek to pose, and at least in part, to answer the question: Is the source of creativity in art and science the same, and can we understand it? No specific background in mathematics, geometry or music is required to participate. The only thing you have to have, is an inquiring and open mind!
