Ann Arbor Summer Festival
The Ann Arbor Summer Festival is an independent, non-profit dedicated to presenting a world-class celebration of arts and entertainment that enriches the cultural, economic, and social vitality of the region.

This hike through the Gallup Park West Loop is approximately 1.6 miles/45 minutes long. This path is not wheelchair/stroller accessible and has some rocky spots. More secluded, next to the river. Dogs must be kept on leashes at this trail.

The music for this hike is comprised of artists that were slated to perform during the Ann Arbor Summer Festival 2020 season. We encourage you to check out more of their music and support local artists!

A few notes:

  1. If you arrive at the end of a blue zone, pause and wait for the song to end.
  2. There may be gaps in the music. That is okay. Enjoy the silence if it happens.
  3. If songs begin to overlap, you can pause the walk, re-start it, and this will correct the issue. If all else fails, stop the walk in the app and re-open it, you should still be able to pick up wherever you are on the walk.
  4. To view the playlist, tap on the menu button in the upper right-hand corner while in the hike.

“Inventing Future Sounds for Ceremonies: Reimagining Ceremonial Music for the Organ & Carillon” Grace Chan and Nicholas Vines Monday, October 2, 2023 3:50 pm Britton Recital Hall Many keystones of the Western classical canon were commissioned for significant royal or aristocratic events such as births, deaths, marriages and coronations. This ceremonial music has historically diffused from “top down”, influencing ceremonial music for sacred and secular events such as graduations and civic celebrations in wider society. For the upcoming British Royal Coronation on the 6th May 2023: “a new commission for solo organ embracing musical themes from countries across the Commonwealth”. We would like to explore how organ and carillon works are commissioned and composed for ceremonies in contemporary Australian society especially in a time when the idea of “Commonwealth” is evolving. This will involve reimagining and inverting the commissioning and creative process to explore how music for these ceremonial instruments can be inclusive, diverse and reflect the community in which the music is performed. The proposed work would be for carillon and offer an alternative to the coronation commission’s approach. Rather than ‘Commonwealth musical themes’ - which evoke old notions of nationhood and colonialism, as well as bring up issues of appropriation – the basis of the composition would be original melodies reflecting the multifaceted nature of individuals in a culturally diverse and egalitarian society such as Australia.
