Caramoor / 1 Dear Friends,

It is with great joy and excitement that we welcome you back to Caramoor for our Summer 2021 season. We are so grateful that you have chosen to join us for the return of live concerts as we reopen our Venetian Theater and beautiful grounds to the public.

We are thrilled to present a full summer of 35 live in-person performances – seven weeks of the ‘official’ season followed by two post-season concert series. This season we are proud to showcase our commitment to adventurous programming, including two Caramoor-commissioned world premieres, three U.S. premieres, two premieres, and two major experiential, site-specific works. Our summer journey also includes solo recitals by world renowned artists; the return of our annual Festival, American Roots Music Festival, and Pops & Patriots concert; a special 91st birthday celebration of Stephen Sondheim; and performances by a spectacular lineup of artists and ensembles from near and far.

Caramoor takes seriously the health and safety of our audiences, artists, and staff, and the 2021 season has been designed in accordance with all the latest state and federal guidelines. In addition to enjoying the music, we invite you to explore our newly renovated grounds and gardens. Bring a picnic or take a socially-distant walk, during which you will likely discover some of our Sonic Innovations sound art installations.

Lastly, while the two of us have been part of the Caramoor community for very different lengths of time, we share the thrill and joy of being here at this momentous occasion that will always be remembered – when the magic of live music performance returned and we could finally all enjoy it together again.

Edward J. Lewis III and James Attwood President & CEO / Chairman of the Board

The Call of Caramoor The pre-concert bells were created for us by -based / Timo Andres. His piano concerto for Jonathan Biss, The Blind Banister, was co- commissioned by Caramoor and performed here in 2016. “I love being asked to make something with a very specific directive. In the case of the Call of Caramoor, I knew that meant writing a series of short pieces that would be distinctive without being jarring; that would blend into an outdoor setting while remaining distinct from it; and that would incite a mild but purposeful sense of urgency in the listener. The bell sounds are tuned in ‘just intonation’ which is derived from the harmonic series, giving them a pleasantly outdoorsy attitude — landing somewhere between the concert stage and the surrounding forest.”

As for free, encouraging audiences to try anyone who has attended a concert at something new. The performance, Caramoor knows, hearing music here is with more than 60 percussionists very different from the experience (on the hottest day of the summer of hearing it in a traditional — approaching 100 degrees), was concert hall. Caramoor was already transcendent and inspiring. programming day-long festivals of jazz That summer we also welcomed and American Roots music around the On Site , who brought a grounds, and we had guitar recitals in marvelous early Mozart opera, The our Sunken Garden.

I know this is going to be a very powerful experience for performers and audience alike. Like Inuksuit and songbirdsongs, John Luther Adams’ Ten Thousand Birds explores the connections between nature and music.

I hope to see you in and around the grounds this summer!

Caramoor / 11 Meet Edward J. Lewis III, President & CEO

Please join us in welcoming Edward J. Lewis III as Caramoor’s new President & CEO! With nearly two decades of experience in performing arts leadership, Ed comes to Caramoor from the University of North Carolina School of the Arts, where he served as Vice Chancellor for Advancement since 2015. Prior to that, he served as Senior Director of Development at the Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center at the University of Maryland, College Park. Ed’s interest in Caramoor’s mission is personal. He is an accomplished violist, having earned a Bachelor of Music degree from Northwestern University and a Master of Music degree from the University of Michigan. He is also an alumnus of the University of Maryland School of Music, where he studied chamber music with the Guarneri String Quartet. He has performed as a member of the Dallas Opera Orchestra, the Dallas Chamber Orchestra, Santa Fe Pro Musica, and the Toledo Symphony. Because this is Ed’s first season at Caramoor (and in Westchester!), we asked him a few questions so that our audience members could learn a little bit more about him. Should you see him on the Caramoor grounds, please say hello and welcome him to the area! Edward J. Lewis III at Caramoor

Caramoor / 12 1. What excites you most about Caramoor at this moment? I have been told by many that Caramoor’s summer season is magical. I am really looking forward to being spellbound by the magic of the music and the lovely grounds — reveling in the Caramoor experience! And of course, meeting all of those who attend and support this remarkable institution. 2. How is this role different from your prior professional experiences? The majority of my non-performance career as an educator and arts administrator has been in service to building the future of the arts by ensuring institutions had the resources, financial and material, to support the training and education of the next generation of emerging artists. At Caramoor, I will continue my service to the arts, music in particular, by helping to ensure that one of our nation’s treasured music festivals is more reflective of the communities we serve; expands access in-person and in the virtual space to augment the Caramoor experience; builds on its level of excellence; and is a place where creativity thrives for artists and audiences alike. 3. What has surprised or delighted you about Caramoor that you didn’t know before? I was surprised to learn that Mother Nature sometimes plays a supporting role in performances in the form of bats and toads, not to mention the weather. I should have expected this as we’re an outdoor music venue, after all! However, I am delighted to know that our audiences and artists don’t miss a beat and take all of this in stride. 4. What did you do for culture / entertainment during the pandemic? I attended several virtual galas to support the local arts community and to observe what would work in that new format, as I had several upcoming virtual galas that I would have to produce for my institution. In addition to cooking, which I find very relaxing and an opportunity to be creative in a different way, I was able to catch up on my reading list which included Isabel Wilkerson’s Caste: The Origins of our Discontent, Eddie Glaude, Jr.’s James Baldwin’s America and Its Urgent Lessons for our Own, and Thomas Friedman’s Thank you for Being Late: An Optimist’s Guide to Thriving in the Age of Accelerations. I was also able to get caught up on watching Stranger Things, The Crown, and Pose. 5. What else would you like Caramoor audiences to know about you? My partner Scott Palmer and I were fortunate to be able to travel to Thailand, Cambodia, and Mexico in the first quarter of 2020, before the pandemic stopped just about everything. That said, we love Thai food and welcome recommendations for restaurants in Westchester County. We look forward to bringing our pet cat Sandy (named after the hurricane from which we rescued him) to our new home in Chappaqua. And, spending time at our old home (1850) on the Maine coast when our schedules permit. (Which likely will not be during this event-filled Caramoor summer!)

Caramoor / 13 Introducing in“C” New permanent sound artwork by Trimpin anchors Caramoor’s Sonic Innovations collection.

Curated by - based sound artist and Northwestern University professor Stephan Moore, the exhibition included the work of 16 sound artists and launched what has, over the past six years, developed Trimpin’s in“C” at Caramoor’s entrance into an integral part of Caramoor’s adventurous programming.

We created new areas of Renaissance art and Chinese art, and added a look into our extensive Caramoor archives where we can learn about the Rosen family including the Rosens’ son Walter, a WWII pilot to whom Caramoor is dedicated; Lucie’s brother Johnny Dodge who was WWII’s most famous POW; and Flora Guest, Lucie’s fearless mother who moved to South Dakota in the early 1900’s to divorce her husband. We cleared out a sitting room that had formerly been an office and created a “Welcome to Caramoor” display of how and why Lucie and Walter founded the summer music festival, who they were and how they met, and how they built their dream house in Katonah.

I am delighted that the Knights to Beethoven’s early, Haydn-esque will be performing Starburst on this Op. 18 Quartets rather than to its program today. immediate predecessors. At the same time, the work’s emotional intensity — Jessie Montgomery and idiosyncratic treatment of form and harmony prefigure the composer’s mold-shattering quartets of the mid- 1820s. Beethoven himself judged it (1770–1827) suitable for only “a small circle of connoisseurs” and even questioned String Quartet in F Minor, Op. 95, whether it should be performed “Serioso” in public.

Caramoor movements. Very soon, however, the mood darkens as the viola launches a quirkily chromatic fugue, interrupted by a ghostly echo of the cello’s opening stepwise theme.

The Allegretto ma non troppo wends its way toward an apparently tranquil close. Instead of the expected D-major cadence, however, a jarring diminished-seventh chord heralds a return to the home key of F minor and an abrupt transition to a bracing Allegro in ¾ time, marked assai vivace, ma serioso (quite lively, but serious). These contrasting moods are further explored, if never quite reconciled, in the finale. Within its highly condensed span of 175 bars (including a slow introduction), the Allegretto agitato runs the gamut from wistful tenderness to fierce, almost savage despair. Out of nowhere, it seems, a hushed F-major chord once more disperses the prevailing gloom. Whereupon a lighthearted coda, as incongruous as it is brief, brings this enigmatic but richly satisfying masterpiece to an unexpectedly upbeat conclusion.

Zefiro torna from the Scherzi Musicali

Poem by Ottavio Rinuccin

Zefiro torna e di soavi accenti returns and with sweet accents l'aer fa grato e'il pié discioglie a l'onde Makes the air pleasant and ruffles the waves, e, mormoranda tra le verdi fronde, And, murmuring among the green boughs, fa danzar al bel suon su'l prato i fiori. Makes the flowers on the meadow dance to the sweet sound.

Inghirlandato il crin Fillide e Clori With garlanded tresses Phyllis and Cloris note temprando lor care e gioconde; Sing sweet and joyful notes of love; e da monti e da valli ime e profond And from the high mountains and deep raddoppian l'armonia gli antri canori. valleys The singing caverns redouble their strains.

Sorge più vaga in ciel l'aurora, e'l sole, Yet fairer the dawn rises in the sky, and the sparge più luci d'or; sun Più puro argento sheds more golden light; fregia di Teti il bel ceruleo manto. Purer silver adorns Thetis’s fair cerulean cloak.

Sol io, per selve abbandonate e sole, Only I, in deserted and lonely woods, l'ardor di due begli occhi e'l mio Tormented by the ardor tormento, of two lovely eyes, come vuol mia ventura, By turns, as fortune turns, hor piango hor canto. I cry and sing.
