Tuck the kids in and slip away for a cozy winter salon evening featuring homemade desserts, wines and transporting music. Sit back in the candlelight while Stanford Professor Stephen Hinton (a Beethoven specialist) discusses Beethoven's truly revolutionary music and how his unusual life circumstances may have influenced this music. Fred Weldy from the Stanford Piano Faculty will demonstrate Professor Hinton's points on the Morehead's grand piano. A treat for the mind and a respite from the winter routine.
