About the Event
Composer-in-Residence Reena Esmail joins us for the Willamette Valley Chamber Music Festival’s performances in the barrel room on Saturday, August 13th and Sunday, August 14th. The concert features two of Esmail’s work, including a brand new piece for soprano, violin, and cello completed this spring, and her vibrant string quartet, Ragamala, which takes inspiration from the ancient genre of paintings of the same name. (Ragamalas, which date back to the 15th century, are an expression of the intersection of painting, poetry, and music in Indian court art… all with the unifying subject of love).
The concert will also feature past Composer-in-Residence Osvaldo Golijov’s stunning “How Slow the Wind” for soprano and string quartet, and conclude with Robert Schumann’s warm and lyrical String Quartet No. 2.
Following the performances, make the evening truly magical by adding the special celebratory dinner we’ve created with J. Christopher. The beautiful three-course, farm-to-table meal paired with premium wines will offer a truly unique chance to dine on the terrace overlooking the beautiful vineyards at susnset, while getting to know festival musicians and our 2022 Composer in Residence!
