This year is all about intimate duo concertos. Mistral musicians will pair up in different duo combinations of winds and strings in both beloved masterpieces and little-known happy discoveries.
As always, the concerto soloists will take turns in the spotlight, including Mistral favorites, string players Julianne Lee, Sarita Kwok, Stephanie Fong, and Don Palma, who will join flutist and artistic director Julie Scolnik, harpsichordist Michael Beattie, and two additional wind players: bassoonist Sam Childers, and oboist Kemp Jernigan! Together in combinations of oboe /bassoon, flute/oboe, cello/viola, and two violins, they will present beguiling works by Bach, Handel, Vivaldi, Telemann, Reichenauer, and Monteverdi.
“Warm and fuzzy doesn’t begin to describe the flood of love we feel when we walk out onto the stage each year,” said Scolnik. “The venues are filled to capacity with the smiling faces of music lovers who have put aside their long lists of holiday chores to come together with friends, family, and community to listen to this glorious, uplifting music!”
