ON the Beat | Academy Seasoning, Out of Season
Generally speaking, the sylvan compound that is the Music Academy of the West’s (MAW) Miraflores campus/estate springs mainly to life during the summer months. But there are exceptions, as happened recently with a welcome confluence of memorable musical (and soiree-style) events on the grounds.
On Saturday night, MAW itself was the focus of attention, as well as fundraising, at an evening alliteratively dubbed “Denk, Denim, and Diamonds.” No less august a performer than world-renowned pianist/witty commentator Jeremy Denk was in the spotlight for a night of cocktails and dinner at long tables in Lehmann Hall, all benefitting the Academy’s summer program and its year-round “Sing!” program.
