Celebrated vocalists Nikki Einfeld and Kyle Stegall headline this summer's Valley of the Moon Music Festival in concerts of Schubert and Schumann, Mozart, Rossini and more. Now in its second year, the Valley of the Moon Music Festival is the nation's first festival devoted entirely to Classical and Romantic music on period instruments, and this year's theme, "The Voice in Chamber Music," explores the influence of song on 19th-century chamber music including Beethoven's Septet, Schubert's Death and the Maiden Quartet, and lieder for tenor and soprano.
Einfeld and Stegall will perform six concerts in all. On Sunday, July 17 at 4 p.m., Stegall sings songs by Mozart in a program titled Inspired by the Magic Flute, which also features Elizabeth Blumenstock on violin alongside Tomkins and Zivian in chamber works by Clementi, Beethoven and Mozart. He sings Schubert lieder in a program titled Death and the Maiden, July 23 at 4 p.m., which also includes the composer's famous string quartet. The following day at 4 p.m. he performs Schumann's Liederkreis in a program which also features Beethoven's Horn Sonata and a Haydn Piano Trio.
Einfeld's concerts include Arias and Quintets, featuring songs by Spohr, Meyerbeer and Mozart, July 29 at 7:30 p.m. Star Power in the 19th Century, featuring songs of Schubert and Rossini, July 30 at 4 p.m. and The Young Mendelssohn, featuring Schubert's "The Shepherd on the Rock," paired with Mendelssohn's famous Octet, July 31 at 4 p.m.
Audience members are invited to arrive early to enjoy a pre-concert picnic on the patio of the Hanna Center, and to mingle with the artists over a complimentary glass of wine following each concert. Each concert will feature a different Sonoma winery through the Festival's Winery Partners Program. Among this year's partner wineries are Kivelstadt Cellars, Idell Family Vineyards, Bar None's Canyon and Iron Horse Vineyards.
