Join esteemed British basso Matthew Rose for a performance of Winterreise—Schubert’s song cycle about a lone traveler braving the winter snow to confront the loss of a great love.

With an international career spanning the Metropolitan Opera, Glyndebourne, and beyond, Matthew’s extraordinary voice brings a rare emotional depth to Schubert’s evocative narrative. His performance, accompanied by distinguished pianist Bruce Zeger, promises to be a profound exploration of grief, imagination, and the human spirit.

As the Innovative Reflections in Music | series returns!

Artistic director Bruce Wolosoff | leads a group of all-star musicians as they explore the influence of blues in classical music with Blue-Tinged Classics.

Wolosoff will be joined by clarinetist Narek Arutyunian and violinist Deborah Buck as they perform music by George Gershwin, Maurice Ravel, Claude Debussy, Aaron Copland, and Coleridge-Taylor Perkinson.

The evening will also include two premieres: a new work by renowned film composer Carter Burwell, and Blue Mantra, the latest composition by Bruce Wolosoff, inspired by Margaret Garrett.
