World Sound Explorations & Interactive Drum Circle

August 11, 2024 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Musician, educator and composer Ryan Meisel travels to select Wisconsin state parks where he performs Spiritual Currents—a blend of Indigenous world music and jazz that honors his spiritual connection to nature and cultures from around the world.

He plays Native American flutes, saxophones, and Indigenous woodwinds including East Indian bansuri, Lithuanian skuduciai & birbyne, Irish flutes & whistles, Slovakian fujara, and Andean pan pipes.

The performance takes place at the Nature Center. After enjoying music and storytelling, guests can join Meisel in a drum circle.

Meisel grew up outside of Milwaukee and honed his jazz skills under the tutelage of legendary bassist Richard Davis at UW-Madison and master jazz educators Ron Carter and Rodrigo Villanueva at Northern Illinois University. Learn more about the performer.
