Catch the excitement about New Mexico’s diva, Susan Graham!
Artistic Director Joseph Illick tells why this special recital is one only Susan Graham can do:

Susan Graham talks about her life and career:

Ms. Graham and pianist Malcolm Martineau will present an evening performance centered around Schumann’s iconic song cycle Frauenliebe und Leben (A Woman’s Love and Life). It is an incredibly varied program musically, dramatically, and stylistically, with the Schumann songs serving as the impetus and inspiration for all of the evening’s pieces.
If you’d like even more Susan Graham, join us after the recital at a beautiful private home as we honor Susan Graham. Details below.

“Graham’s mezzo-soprano is a voice without regrets,
healthy, rounded, ineffably musical, and eager for a challenge.”
The New Yorker
