Artistic Directors Welcome

We are so happy to be back in this enchanting place sharing this incredible music with you all. Our programs this year feature a wonderful mixture of brazen brilliance and profound beauty and they all connect to the theme of “Virtue and Virtuosity”. You will have the opportunity to hear the wonderful roster performing solo and chamber works ranging from Bach and Biber to the music of today. Our composer in residence, Marc Neikrug, the director of the Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival, has written a newly co-commissioned work for oboe and strings. Please join us in Raton and Taos where you will watch a Buster Keaton film shown with live musicians providing the soundtrack.

You won’t want to miss our annual Fiesta; a celebration with food and informal music making with musicians and friends. The salon concert promises to be a great event, hosted by Toby Appel, featuring a surprise string quartet written and dedicated to Music from Angel Fire, by the Dolphins from Juilliard. Our grand finale will be the famous Four Seasons by Vivaldi as well as Astor Piazzola’s Argentinian take on the Seasons. In addition to our regular concert series, daily, our Young Artists from Juilliard and Curtis are out in the field each day bringing music to the public schools in Northern New Mexico!

There are so many people who make this festival possible. We want to thank our incredible Board, staff and volunteers who work tirelessly donating their time and energy to Music From Angel Fire and our donors and sponsors who help us bring this beautiful series of concerts to you all. We would not be able to do this without YOU!!! We are so thrilled to see you and to be here with you to share the joy of our troop of world class musicians in this breathtaking land.
