Annapolis Chamber Music Festival: Of Love and Longing

We’re proud to again be joined by Baltimore-based soprano, Melissa Wimbish, for an evening of emotionally-tinged music for voice and instruments. Schubert’s “Shepherd on the Rock” for soprano, clarinet, and piano offers dramatic contrasts that highlight the artistry of all three musicians. Robert Schumann’s “Frauen-Liebe und Leben” offers a similar portrait of joy and sadness through the eyes of a woman in love, infused with Schumann’s trademark Romanticism. Instrumental duos by Clara Schumann and Jessica Meyer offer colorful parallels whose wordless melodies allow the listener to craft their own narrative.
