TWO PERFORMANCES:
Aug 15th at 7pm and Aug 16th at 3:30pm
Beginning deep in the ocean, this program rises upward—breaking the surface and ultimately soaring into the sky.
As human beings, we don’t naturally inhabit the deep sea or the high atmosphere, which gives us limited direct experience of either realm—but abundant imagination about what life means at each level.
“Blue” takes place at the Stoughton Opera House and features voice, string quartet, string bass, and piano.
The one-hour program, performed without intermission, includes works by John Cage, Kaija Saariaho, Maurice Ravel, Florence Price, Ralph Vaughan Williams, and Franz Schubert.
Musicians:
David Perry, violin
Alex Norris, violin
Madlen Breckbill, viola
Phil Bergman, cello
Laura Perry, Bass & voice
Micah Behr, Piano
Samtalä | Musicians in Dialogue, is a chamber music project rooted in musical dialogue — between instruments, artists, space, and listener. Every performance is a meeting of ideas, voices, and shared presence.
History:
Samtalä is the evolution of the Stoughton Chamber Music Festival, which began in 2019 in Stoughton, Wisconsin, a town rich in Norwegian heritage. Through it’s name, ‘Samtalä’ gives a nod to where it began while opening space for growth beyond the summer season and beyond Stoughton itself.
Focus:
Samtalä creates innovative concert experiences that explore novel combinations of established, contemporary, and newly commissioned works. Through chamber music concerts and interactive children’s concerts, Samtalä participates in the evolving landscape of classical music while centering the experience of our community of listeners and musicians.
