The spring season begins on Sunday, March 30, 3 p.m., with mezzo-soprano Megan Moore, accompanied by pianist Francesco Barfoed. Moore, a previous winner of FOMC’s Young Concert Artists Performance Award, has appeared at the Metropolitan Opera, among prominent companies. Barfoed, with Moore, won first prize in the Copenhagen Lied-Duo Competition.
They will present a program of songs that include Mahler’s meditation on love and loss in “Songs of a Wayfarer,” three of Rachmaninoff’s deeply emotional “Six Songs, Opus 38” and Prokofiev’s radiant “Five Poems of Anna Akhmatova.”
Moore and Barfoed also have programmed 20th century composer Yvette Souviron’s “Al banco solitario” and “Carnavalito,” and selections from African-American composer B.E. Boykin’s “Moments in Sonder,” with text from the poetry of Maya Angelou.
Audience members are invited to a post-concert reception to meet the artists.
This concert is generously sponsored, in part, by the Raymond Han and Paul Kellogg Foundation.
