Takacs Quartet - Naomi Shihab Nye
CCMS Co-Artistic Directors Daniel Chong and Jessica Bodner are joined by pianist Daniel Anastasio and acclaimed poet Naomi Shihab Nye for an afternoon of music and poetry in conversation. Blending moments of reflection with bursts of playfulness, this unique collaboration seeks to reveal a new perspective on the emotional core of each piece—musical and poetic—through thoughtful juxtaposition. This program will feature works by Brahms, Bach, Ives, Rebecca Clarke, and Tessa Lark, among others.
Vista Philharmonic Orchestra – Transitions and Variations
Jean Sibelius’ good-natured and deceptively uncomplicated-sounding Symphony No. 3 is a turning point from his first two intensely romantic and nationalistic symphonies to his later, more austere and complex symphonic works. The second half reveals an early 20th century overture by the underplayed (and under-recognized) New York born, Berlin trained composer Helen Crane. We bookend the program with another English composer, BAFTA Award-winning film composer Richard Harvey (The DaVinci Code) whose beloved Concerto Antico is a stunning contemporary Baroque showcase for guest soloist Scott Hill’s guitar.

We will remain in the Far East as Igor Stravinsky’s Petrushka tells us the magical story of three puppets that come to life in a Russian street fair.
