Kenneth Knight will present a pre-concert lecture one hour before each performance.
The glorious music of six master composers – Russian, English, Italian and German, whose collective lives spanned the 17th through the 20th centuries – provides the program for Canticum Novum’s final concerts of the 2009-2010 season – highlighted by the first performance ever by a Santa Fe ensemble of Dmitri Shostakovich’s Piano Concerto No. 1, a brilliant work full of humor and wit.
