In celebration of their album release, Baroque Music Montana tours their album program “I Melt Like Snow in the Sun of Your Beauty” with concerts across the state. The program features passionate sacred and profane love songs from the early 1600s with Portland-based soprano Arwen Meyers, along with instrumental flights of fancy performed by Carrie Krause on baroque violin, John Lenti on theorbo, and Nate Helgeson on dulcian, a precursor to the bassoon. Repertoire includes an aching lament by Palestrina, charming woodsy love songs by Marini, a fantasia by Selma - one of the first solo pieces written for early bassoon, Marini’s “Due Corde” - the first violin sonata written with notes to be played simultaneously on multiple strings, and ending with “Ed è pur dunque vero” - a madrigal by Monteverdi, the first composer to depict war, anger, and emotions of all kinds in music and whose compositional language changed music forever.Ticket information can be found at baroquemusicmontana.org

The 10th annual Moms Like Me hosted by Roots Family Collaborative will be held on Sunday, March 1 at The ELM, downtown Bozeman. Doors open at 4pm and the event starts at 5pm. Moms Like Me has become a well-loved, community event for mothers and families in the greater Bozeman area to raise awareness about perinatal mental health, normalize the expectations of the perinatal period, and strengthen support networks.

Over the past nine years, 29 incredible storytellers and 14 musicians have bravely taken the stage to share their raw, real, and powerful journeys into motherhood. Each of these women have helped shape Moms Like Me into what it is today: a celebration of motherhood, resilience, connection, and truth-telling.

The power of storytelling cannot be overstated. The collective impact of Moms Like Me reaches far beyond the annual event—it lives in the hearts of those who’ve listened, those who’ve felt seen, and those who’ve found the courage to share their own truths because each mother before has shared hers.

As we prepare to celebrate the 10 year anniversary of Moms Like Me, we encourage all in our community to attend and experience the power of connection. This event is open to all who love and support mothers.
