Dear Friends,
We are delighted to announce Intermezzo, Music@Menlo’s upcoming digital chamber music experience designed to fill the void created by the postponement of this year’s festival. “Intermezzo,” the Italian term for music appearing between larger parts of a performance, describes the virtual bridge we have curated for our listeners to cross and enjoy between now and Haydn Connections next summer.
Taking place during the original 2020 festival dates of July 17–August 8, Intermezzo presents the essential elements of the Music@Menlo experience: performance, education, and personal connection. Listeners can enjoy a variety of artist interviews, live and archival performances, master classes, and more from past Music@Menlo seasons. We will be welcoming back beloved artists from many different Music@Menlo seasons to greet you as event hosts. The spectacular Young Performers and International Program artists will amaze your ears and melt your hearts. Encounter lectures and Café Conversations will broaden your musical horizons. Great music will move us all—just as it has always been.
Intermezzo events will be broadcast on Music@Menlo’s Facebook page and website. Please join us!
Warmest regards,
|
