Performance: The Shepherd on the Rock

Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival’s 52nd season-opening program begins with Schubert’s exquisite The Shepherd on the Rock, performed by four-time Grammy Award–winning clarinetist Todd Levy and two extraordinary artists making their Festival debuts: soprano Liv Redpath, praised by the Berliner Umschau for her “radiant voice” and “breathtaking coloratura,” and pianist George Fu, who’s been hailed for his “stunning virtuosity” by The Boston Musical Intelligencer. The powerhouse program also features violinist Yura Lee and pianist Gilles Vonsattel playing Enescu’s fiery Sonata in A Minor for Violin and Piano, as well as Vonsattel, violinist Leila Josefowicz, and cellist Paul Watkins joining forces for Shostakovich’s somber yet sublime Piano Trio in E Minor.
