Sunday, May 15 at 2 p.m., NOVA, Alexandria, Va. This concert explores how images and imagination are turned into music, with inspiration taken from ancient ballads, painting, sculpture, poetry, photographs, and film. Each of the works presented on this program began its life as a very personal study and interpretation by the composer. Yet music possesses the potential to move well beyond the images that inspire it, becoming living art that evolves with each performance and brings with it the invitation to create new pictures within the mind of the listener. The concert is free and no tickets are required. Free parking is available - Sunday, May 15 at 2 p.m., NOVA, Alexandria, Va.
