Intérprete: Milena Pajaro-van de Stadt

Contemporary programming at this year's festival brings a sensitive social issue close to home, culminating in Judith Markovich's “Oh, my son…” 

With the audience sitting on stage with the performers and in the choir loft, this feels like the kind of communal experience that Bach would have recognized.

Smart sophistication and creepy entertainment go hand-in-hand in an excursion to odd corners of the chamber repertoire.
