These compositions will be heard from various locations around the Gardens, including blossom trees and scenic areas with magnolias, offering a beautiful sensory experience. Composers such as Daniel Musashi, Jasmine Morris, Tymon Zgorzelski, Lucy Holmes, Delyth Field, and Louis Enright contribute their talents to this special event.
