UPCOMING PROGRAM: Thursday, September 11 at 10:30 a.m. in the Fairway Room at Creekside
Joel Feigin will talk on “Loving-Kindness to Ourselves.” A long-time student of Zen Buddhism, Feigin studied for many years with the late Sojun Mel Weitsman Roshi at the Berkeley Zen Center. Joel Feigin is a composer, whose operas, chamber, orchestral, and piano works have been widely praised for their “very strong impact, as logical in musical design as they are charged with emotion and drama.” (Opera Magazine). His operas have been widely produced in many venues in the US and as far away as Moscow.
