Spring 2021 NMPAS programs are partially sponsored by the Santa Fe Arts & Culture Department ARTS & CULTURE DEPARTMENT 3 Franz Vote, Artistic Director During my long conducting career, including a decade in Germany and another at the Metropolitan Opera, I often dreamed that one day both Bach and New Mexico would be part of my life again. My DNA goes all the way back to my grandfather who was a forest ranger in the Pecos Mountains in 1902. When Linda and I decided to retire to New Mexico in 2009, little did we expect that our lives would be so personally enriched by singers and and instrumentalists keen to sing and play Bach, opera, and music reflecting our Hispanic and Latino heritage. What we soon learned is that our state has many top-notch musicians who make their homes here. And so in 2012 New Mexico Performing Arts Society was created. In its short span, NMPAS has given concerts in Santa Fe, Albuquerque, Taos, Las Vegas, Los Alamos, Carrizozo, and collaborated with musicians in Las Cruces, Portales, and a growing number of cities around New Mexico. We are enormously gratified that our efforts are paying off. This publication describes how we plan to continue to serve our talented artists and our growing statewide audiences in the coming decade. We also plan to expand our education and mentorship programs for committed younger musicians. NMPAS depends on the financial and volunteer support of all those who care about the musical life of our state and who love Bach, opera, the music of Spain, Mexico and the Southwest! We hope you will take time to read about our plans for the future. Our thanks go out to the many generous New Mexicans who support NMPAS and share in its vision. In communities everywhere there are people like you who make good things happen. We ask you to help us grow. Linda joins me in appreciation to all of you for your commitment to NMPAS. Franz Vote, Artistic Director NMPAS We make great music for New Mexicans by New Mexicans 4 Keith K.

She held positions with the Sinfonica Orquesta UA de Guadalajara (Mexico) and the American Wind Symphony Orchestra, with whom she was featured as a soloist for concerts and subsequent recordings. A finalist in competitions in Austin and Dallas, she won the Pittsburgh Concert Society Young Artist Competition in 1987. In Europe, she made recital appearances with the Atelier Series and Concerts Accueil Musical and the Cultural Program Series at the American Embassy in Paris, the Norwegian Broadcasting Corp.

Orchestral tours include ten performances in Germany with the EPSO in 1996, and in 2000, a summer tour of five cities in Turkey with the Borusan Istanbul Philharmonic Orchestra. She has soloed with the EPSO on performances during her 26+ year tenure. Under her supervision, the University of Texas El Paso Flute Studio held a reputation of excellence in solo and ensemble performances. Via competitive audition, The Flautistas performed at NFA conventions (2007, 2014). Her former students have become professional flutists in orchestras, college professors, and music educators across the US and the Texas-Mexico Border region. Having recently relocated to Santa Fe, Melissa founded an adult flute choir, accrued a small cadre of flute students, and spends more time discovering New Mexico’s natural and cultural offerings. Melissa earned the BM degree at the University of Alabama (Sheryl Cohen) as well as the MM and DMA at the University of Texas at Austin (Torkil Bye, Karl Kraber).

At Adams State she was a recipient of the Presidential Teaching Award and has taughtapplied flute, chamber music, and courses in music education.

Advocacy, equity, and community engagement are at the heart of Tracy’s work as a musician, educator, and leader. Multidisciplinary collaboration is at the core of Tracy’s creative activity as a flutist. She finds joy in performing in a variety of settings ranging from solo, chamber, and orchestral to Irish traditional music. Performances have taken her throughout the United States, Australia, and Japan. As a member of the Japanese-American Apricity Trio, with clarinetist Chiho Sugo and percussionist James Doyle, she recently released a CD titled Sandhill Crane featuring newly commissioned works and new music, as well as standard repertoire.
