Appalachian Trail Symphony: New England
In the summer of 2016, Keane hiked the New England portion of the Appalachian Trail (over 700 miles!) which inspired this symphony, commissioned by a consortium of four New England orchestras, celebrating the trail and its wilderness. This video features his own photos from the hike and a performance by the Clafin Hill Symphony Orchestra.
