PROGRAM
“AMERICAN DREAM”
BEETHOVEN: op. 59 no. 1 “Razumovsky”
American Dream explores this experience musically by featuring a variety of artists from all over the world, channeling their expressivity into an intuitive and powerful narrative with a decidedly theatrical feel. Works by past and present composers who have chosen to make their home in the United States converse freely with one another in a purposefully unannounced concert half. A few carefully chosen, inspiring words provide abstract and thought-provoking context, and for keen audience members the entire program may be viewed at intermission.
This rather unfamiliar form of presentation introduces a concert experience filled with a renewed sense of open mindedness and discovery, while simultaneously redefining the communicative potential of the traditional chamber music experience and serving as a musical metaphor for the way we aspire to see others and want to be seen ourselves: free of expectations, unprejudiced and with a truly open mind and heart.

Illustrated talk by Jan Swafford
This program, led by the eminent Beethoven biographer Jan Swafford, focuses on the composer’s early maturity, as seen in his first six string quartets, Op. 18. To a certain extent, these were written in the shadow of his friend and mentor Joseph Haydn, who virtually invented the modern conception of the string quartet. At the same time, they are mature and masterful pieces, in many ways prophetic of the works Beethoven would go on to produce. This event is a narrative recital featuring excerpts from the first five quartets and a full performance of No. 6.

The Bard Music Festival returns for its 33rd season with an exploration of the life and work of Ralph Vaughan Williams (1872–1958), one of the greatest symphonists of the 20th century.
Few figures have had such a formative and protean influence on their musical environment as the British composer. With an oeuvre that ranges from songs and hymns to opera, film music, and full-scale orchestral and choral works and includes popular works such as the Fantasia on a Theme of Thomas Tallis and The Lark Ascending as well as scores of uncompromising modernity, Vaughan Williams’s voice defined an era. The festival will explore the full scope of his work and set it in the context of his politics and the culture of the time.
