SUMMARY:Discover Lieder
DESCRIPTION:A one-time\, free introduction to Lieder. What is German Lieder? Lieder is literally the German word for songs\, though the term is usually used in reference to German songs of the Romantic Period (19th Century) written for voice and piano.

Join Jenny Matteucci and Daniel Lockert as they delve deep into an amazing tradition of songwriting\, and help you appreciate this often-misunderstood art form. They will play for you some of the greatest Lieder singers of our time\, and they’ll perform also. \nBook your complimentary ticket; you’ll receive an email reminder the day of the event. \n\nGET FREE TICKETS (required)\n\n	\n		\nIn 2017 Jenny Matteucci\, who has an extensive background as a performer\, choral director\, and voice teacher\, became the Festival Chorus Master; joined by her husband\, Daniel Lockert\, a marvelous accompanist and an outstanding language coach. The artistic leadership of this dynamic duo is a wonderful addition to the Festival\, and has made possible an ongoing series of courses in various aspects of singing.

SUMMARY:Susan Waterfall: Debussy Préludes Book II (two-part series)
DESCRIPTION:Are you longing for world travel? Do you need a bit of Belle Époque Paris? Maybe you’re curious about musical modernism? Susan Waterfall is back\, with Book Two of Debussy’s Préludes for Piano\, which will provide you with all of the above. Armchair travel is a necessity during the pandemic. Historic and current performances along with fascinating art and photographs will bring to life Debussy’s final twelve preludes\, written before the outbreak of World War One. Here’s another opportunity for lifelong learners to find out more about Debussy and deepen their appreciation of these gems of the piano repertoire. \nAfter Susan’s recent presentations of Book One: “I’ve never heard Susan Waterfall before and was impressed with her knowledgeable and interesting talk. The photography was beautiful and really helped me see the music differently. Those visions certainly set the mood of the music and helped make more sense of the sounds I was hearing. On the whole\, it was another bit of MMF magic to introduce me to and help me understand music\, thoughts and ideas that I have missed in my ongoing musical experience.” —Sea Ranch\, CA \nFridays\, February 26 and March 5\, 12:00-1:15 PM PST\nGET FREE SERIES TICKET (before Part 1 Feb 26) \n\nGET FREE TICKET (after Part 1 Feb 26) \n\n\n	\n		Pianist and Associate Artistic Director Susan Waterfall has created many multi-media\, narrated settings for chamber music for the Festival\, ranging from Bartok’s Women (2003) to Tales of a Parisian Salon (2004) to They Left a Light\, Masterpieces from Nazi Prison Camps (2009).

SUMMARY:The Life and Music of Kurt Weill
DESCRIPTION:Another of Susan Waterfall’s fascinating virtual presentations\, this time about Kurt Weill. This gives you an opportunity to learn more before you attend the July 18 Weill concert in Cotton Auditorium. \nWhat happens when an impeccably trained young German composer decides he wants a new audience? When a nice Jewish boy starts hanging out with a Marxist poet and a Viennese flapper? When the distinction between highbrow and lowbrow becomes irrelevant? Susan Waterfall and her team have created a film describing Kurt Weill’s life and work\, including a unique collection of both historic and contemporary performances of his songs. Weill communicated the soul and style of Modernity while he survived the sweeping historic changes of Weimar Berlin\, the rise of Hitler\, Paris in the early 1930s\, and Broadway in the 1940s. You’ll find this film a rewarding companion to the Festival’s July 18\, 2021 Weill Tribute “One Life to Live.” \nVirtual attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions Waterfall will answer in a Q&A session that will follow the main presentation. \nArt and photograph collection by Mina Cohen\nFilmed and edited by Julian Pollack\nWritten and directed by Susan Waterfall \n\n\n	\n		\nProof of completed COVID-19 vaccination\, including at least one booster\, is required\, and masks must be properly worn at all times while on event premises. Though it might exceed official requirements\, this policy is based on current conditions and the results of our most recent audience survey. \n\n		\n	\n\n\n\nThis is a virtual event.\nGET FREE TICKET (required)
