About this concert
For the 10th season, IN A LANDSCAPE: Classical Music in the Wild tours the American West. Mountain tops, old-growth forests, and sunny meadows replace the traditional concert hall in the series featuring pianist Hunter Noack on a 9-foot Steinway concert grand piano. Listen through wireless headphones and wander afield with the music as a soundtrack to your experience in the wild.
Nestled inland on Orcas Island, Cascade Lake is a tranquil jewel within Moran State Park. Evergreens shade the grassy lawn surrounding the lake’s shore. Spanning over 5,200 acres, Moran State Park was established in 1921 and named for former Seattle mayor Robert Moran, who donated the land. This historical and natural treasure rests on the ancestral lands of the Northern Straits Salish peoples, including the Lummi, Samish, Semiahmoo, Saanich, and Songhee tribes, who called Orcas Island home for thousands of years.
This is 1 of 2 IN A LANDSCAPE concerts at Orcas Island.

IN A LANDSCAPE: Classical Music in the Wild Biography
Founded in 2016 by classical pianist Hunter Noack, IN A LANDSCAPE: Classical Music in the Wild is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit outdoor concert series where America’s most stunning landscapes replace the traditional concert hall. A 9-foot Steinway grand piano travels on a flatbed trailer to State and National Parks, urban greenspaces, working ranches, farms, and historical sites for classical music concerts that connect people with each landscape.
To meet the acoustical challenges of performing in the wild, music is transmitted to concert-goers via wireless headphones. No longer confined to seats, audiences explore the landscape, wander through secret glens, lie in sunny meadows, and roam old growth forests.
In the spirit of the Works Progress Administration’s (WPA) Federal Music and Theatre Projects, which presented thousands of free concerts and plays in theaters, public spaces and parks across the country during the Depression, IN A LANDSCAPE events are offered primarily in rural communities for free or on a subsidized basis. For upcoming performances, click here.
Since 2016, IN A LANDSCAPE has presented 275 concerts in Oregon, Washington, Montana, Idaho, New York, Utah, Wyoming, and California to over 55,000 people. Guest artists have included poets, visual artists, dancers, and musicians playing everything from banjos to pianos. Folks travel from near and far. Local ranchers, loggers, and farmers gather with visiting city dwellers and tourists from beyond.
