SUMMARY:A POET’S LOVE: Schumann
DESCRIPTION:In the 19th century\, much as today\, a party wasn’t complete without music. Back then\, of course\, it was performed live. The liederabend – or “evening of song” – was a very popular form of social gathering and musical performance. There was food\, drink\, and company\, and the great musicians of the day often sat down at the piano to serenade guests with their most recent songs. This is the environment that gave rise to Schumann’s greatest song-cycle Dichterliebe\, or “A Poet’s Love.” Based on Heinrich Heine’s ephemeral and entrancing cycle of poems\, Dichterliebe offers an inside look at the way an artist confronts the unknowability of love and longing.  \nThis year\, VMMF brings Dichterliebe to life with a totally different kind of concert format. Part cabaret\, part salon\, with a bit of houseparty thrown in as well\, this luxurious and exclusive evening recreates all the conviviality of the 19th century liederabend – think food and drink\, but also an up close/personal relationship with the artists themselves. It’s a chance\, yes\, to go back in time\, but also to experience something new\, a surprising way of hearing a beloved classic.  \nThe evening  features delicious wine and food from area producers\, as well as a chance to hang out with fellow concert goers and the musicians themselves during this immersive concert-experience.  \nFestival Co-Director fortepianist Eric Zivian joins VMMF favorite\, tenor Kyle Stegall\, who says about the evening\, “The moments we will share with listeners in this performance will be truly once-in-a-lifetime\, and will connect all of us to a sound world which will put us squarely in the heart of Schumann and Heine’s soul space.” \n\nApproximately 1 hour without intermission  \nSINGLE TICKETS: \nSingle Ticket Livestream Ticket \n  \nSUBSCRIPTIONS: \nFestival Pass Virtual Pass

SUMMARY:JOSÉ WHITE’S CIRCLE
DESCRIPTION:José Silvestre de los Dolores White (1835-1918)\, also known as José White and Joseph White\, was born in Matanzas\, Cuba\, during colonial times. He began playing the violin and composing at a young age. His professional debut occurred in 1854 alongside the American pianist Louis Moreau Gottschalk (1829-1869)\, who inspired him to study at the Paris Conservatoire. There\, he won the Premier Prix after less than one year of study. White gained global recognition as a soloist\, composer\, and pedagogue and\, in the United States\, he notably became the first soloist of African descent to perform with the New York Philharmonic Society\, during his 1875-1876 tour. Through musical works by White and his contemporaries in Europe and the Americas\, including Gottschalk\, Camille Saint-Saëns\, Cécile Chaminade\, Nicolás Espadero\, Ignacio Cervantes\, and others\, this program will examine the rich—and underexplored—cultural milieu in which White lived and worked.  \n The Festival welcomes Latin Grammy-nominated pianist Adonis Gonzalez in his Valley of the Moon Music Festival debut.  \n  \nPROGRAM \n  \nJosé White – Zamacueca\, Danse Chilienne Op.30 for Violin and Piano (1897) \nIgnacio Cervantes  – 6 Cuban Dances (1899) \nCamille Saint-Saëns  – Piano Quartet in B♭ major\, Op. 41 (1875) \nINTERMISSION \nCécile Chaminade – Piano Trio No.1\, Op.11 (1881) | III.
