Wellness Wednesday: Music, Breath, and Intention - A Wellness Concert Experience
–
April 15, 2026
Join Homer OPUS for a unique Wellness Wednesday experience that weaves together live orchestral music, guided breathing, and mindful intention. Inspired by a powerful wellness concert witnessed at Carnegie Hall this past summer, this evening is designed to support relaxation, presence, and nervous system regulation through the combined power of music and mindfulness.
The program will include a short introductory presentation, followed by a 15–20 minute immersive listening experience featuring the Homer OPUS Codas orchestra. Throughout the concert, Anna Raupp will offer gentle, accessible guidance in breathwork and mindfulness to help participants settle into the music and deepen their experience. The concert will also feature a new piece by local composer, Bill White, for orchestra and gong.The evening will conclude with time for reflection and a Q&A.
This event features an 16-person ensemble of adult and student musicians and is open to the community. No prior experience with mindfulness or music is required—simply come as you are and enjoy this restorative, heart-opening experience.
