The natural environment has been something that has been AN inspiration for composers for hundreds of years. Whether it be Vivaldi’s Four Seasons, Strauss’s Alpine Symphony, or Beethoven’s Pastoral symphony; nature has inspired many masterworks throughout the centuries.

Today with climate change and global warming being  at the forefront of our minds, twentieth and twenty-first century composers have also been inspired to compose works not only inspired by nature, but also works that hopefully make a statement about what man is doing to the planet.

The Manitoba Museum opened on July 15, 1970, and was originally named the Manitoba Museum of Man and Nature.

This weekend, the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra opens their 75th anniversary season with a gala concert welcoming back one of Manitoba’s own: classical superstar James Ehnes.

“I’ve been looking forward to this for a longtime,” says Ehnes from his home in Florida.
