Come listen to dreamy impressionistic-styled music that will transform your inner landscape!

Oasis Ensemble will perform “The Enchanted Garden,” an exquisite piece composed in 2025 for the Oasis Ensemble by Italian composer, Roberto Piana.

Each of its six movements evokes a mythical flavor:

• The Fountain
• The Lotus Flower
• The Nightingale
• The Labyrinth
• The Secret Door
• The Phoenix

The movements will be individually introduced with comments from the musicians. Afterwards, the audience will be invited to break into groups to talk about what they experienced. Following an intermission with refreshments, the entire work will be performed from beginning to end.

*LOCATION: Mandala Sanctuary
A beautiful yurt on private property in SW Eugene with great acoustics and a wood burning stove.

RSVP is required to secure your seat and receive address, directions and parking instructions.

Note: Everyone is invited to leave their shoes at the door, so you may wish to bring warm socks or slippers and/or a throw blanket. Seating is mostly on the floor on a rug with backjacks. Chairs will be available for those who request them.
