Pianist Hunter Noack brings music to the outdoors. His nonprofit, IN A LANDSCAPE: Classical Music in the Wild, unites the general public with both nature and classical music.

Instead of playing in a concert hall, Noack brings his nine-foot Steinway grand piano to an outdoor landscape. Attendees listen to his performance through wireless headphones that provide acoustics similar to those of a concert hall venue. The headphones allow listeners to meander through the natural setting as they listen to his music.

A Botanical Gardens Concert

On May 25, Noack brought his style of music to the Botanical Gardens in Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. A crew helped him convert his custom-made piano trailer into a stage. After the piano was tuned, Noack began the concert.
