In a Landscape: classical music in the wild (IAL) is the outdoor concert series where America's most stunning landscapes replace the traditional concert hall. Presented primarily in the rural American west, IAL works in partnership with public lands agencies, conservation groups, family ranchers and farmers, tribal nations, community groups, and schools. Wireless headphones give the audience freedom to wander through each landscape, connecting with the music, each other, and the landscape.
