Brahms & Neikrug

Influential 20th-century Japanese composer Toru Takemitsu’s wonderfully eerie and evocative Rain Spell opens this wide-ranging program, which includes one of Brahms’s last works—his masterful Clarinet Trio, featuring legendary clarinetist David Shifrin—as well as the New Mexico premiere of Festival Artistic Director Marc Neikrug’s Fantasy for Clarinet, Viola, Cello, and Percussion.
