Sachs Museum Performance Series: Musical Scents | Voices in the Garden

Have you ever experienced scents through sounds? The Stephen and Peter Sachs Museum and Italian acclaimed Mezzo Soprano Benedetta Orsi will take you on a captivating journey through scents and essences in classical music, to discover the fascinating world of fragrances inspired by plants.

As guests assemble, the St. Louis Women’s Chorale will perform three selections together with Benedetta Orsi that conjure up roasted coffee, black tea and tobacco through complex blends of woody, spicy, and smoky notes.

Music by Bizet, Schumann, Mahler, Rachmaninoff, De Curtis, and more. Nancy Mayo, pianist; piano provided courtesy of Jackson Pianos.
