Meditative Mondays is a unique experience combining a guided meditation with a live performance of music by some of the most important composers of the 20th and 21st centuries.
On June 15th we’ll pair the meditation goal of self reflection with an iconic piece by “mystical minimalist” composer Arvo Pärt. We’ll perform Spiegel Im Spiegel, which means Mirror In Mirror, composed in Pärt’s “tintinnabular” style consisting of a lyrical melody and spare, “bell-like” accompaniment. We’ll also perform John Cage’s piece In a Dream, a meditative arrangement of Miles Davis’ dreamy Blue ‘N Green and a beautiful new piece by Australian composer Elena Kats Chernin.

MOSA’s final spring concert at Our Saviour’s Atonement Church. Zosha Warpeha is a composer-performer specializing in improvisatory, atmospheric soundscapes based on Nordic folk music—her instrument, the ten-stringed Hardanger d’amore, is closely related to the Norwegian Hardanger fiddle. Notable performances have taken place at the Emanuel Vigeland Museum, Newport Jazz Festival, Vesterheim Museum, and The Stone.
Zosha will be joined by bassist Tristan Kasten Krause for a set of new folk-inspired improvisations at the close of OSA Church’s open house—come for the community activities and tag sale, and stay for the music!
