New York’s Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center returns to the Emerald City Music, bringing a vibrant celebration of Spanish music. This exciting program features Artistic Director Kristin Lee alongside the acclaimed, GRAMMY-winning guitarist Jason Vieaux, who returns to the ECM stage. Spend a musical evening in Spain, a country of enchanting colors, rhythms, and textures, in this special evening curated by Lee. The distinctive Spanish style is beautifully expressed in piano trios of Falla and Turina, while guitar – an instrument deeply associated with Spain – is also featured, played by Jason Vieaux. Song complements the balance of the program with vocal works by Sarasate, Rodrigo, and Obradors, the texts of which beautifully express the flair and passion of the Spanish language. The combination of the guitar’s intoxicating sounds, the language’s seductive tones, and the trios’ vivid style illustrates the richness of this culture. Soprano Vanessa Becerra, cellist Clive Greensmith, and pianist Soyeon Kate Lee join Lee and Vieaux for these evocative performances.
