The Music of Katahdin with Nate Saunders

Join us for a fascinating conversation with Nate Saunders, veteran violinist for the Augusta Symphony Orchestra and composer of The Katahdin Suite. With infectious enthusiasm,  Nate tells us about his creative and very collaborative thinking in composing the piece and capturing his feeling about hiking to Baxter Peak.  Oh, and there are fiddle tunes!

Nate and the Augusta Symphony Orchestra recently performed The Katahdin Suite on May 11, 2025. You can watch a recording of their performance here.

Your hosts for Baxter and Friends are Jensen Bissell, former Park Director, and Maine's own Bill Green; both are members of the board of directors of Friends of Baxter State Park.
