Art & Anxiety
March 21 @ 7:30 pm-10:00 pm
(Societal and Political Storm & Stress of the 1760s-70s)
7:30 p.m. Saturday, March 21, 2026
Greaves Concert Hall, NKU
With clouds of war and revolution gathering in Europe and the American colonies in the mid-1700s, art, literature, theater and music moved to reject the Enlightenment ideal of rational order. The resulting period reflecting society’s anxiety came to be known as Sturm und Drang – German for storm and stress. KSO associate conductor Thomas Consolo leads this cauldron of musical toil and trouble from the 1760s and ’70s
