Outreach Program Acting on the belief that experiencing live classical music presented by dynamic young musicians is vital to childhood development, Musical Masterworks’ Outreach Program began during the 1997-1998 season. For over 20 years, Musical Masterworks has presented more than 125 chamber music programs and workshops to over 35,000 students in more than 20 schools, located in New London, Waterford, Old Lyme, Lyme, Old Saybrook, Deep River, Essex, Norwich and Montville. Artists who have appeared include Project Fusion Saxophone Quartet, Quinteto Latino, Imani Winds, Marian Anderson String Quartet, Asylum Quartet, Harlem String Quartet, Chiara String Quartet and Ritz Chamber Players. The pandemic challenges prevented us from doing in-person programs in schools last season but we are hopeful that in 2022 we will once again be able to present our Outreach Program to the children of our communities.

.

In the Fall of 2019, Project Fusion Saxophone Quartet visited the Jennings School in New London as part of Musical Masterworks’ Outreach Program, continuing our commitment of bringing great music to the children of our communities. Project Fusion got the students so energized with their upbeat playing, that the children were moving to the beat in their seats! Many thanks to The Kitchings Family Foundation for sponsoring our Outreach Program.

To Our Audience As we emerge from this surreal year of isolation and “virtual” music making, I can imagine nothing sweeter than our long-awaited return to the magical in-person concert experience that we all have come to cherish at Musical Masterworks. We have a marvelous cast of esteemed MM musicians returning to our stage this season—along with a couple of exciting Musical Masterworks debuts—to perform masterworks spanning from the early 18th Century to the present day. Our opening concert weekend in October will feature the debut of harpsichordist Paolo Bordignon, alongside violinists Jesse Mills and Tessa Lark in a program of Baroque delights that served as the inspiration for Stravinsky’s ballet, Pulcinella; in December, we will welcome back pianist Orion Weiss, violinist Amy Schwartz Moretti and violist Nicholas Cords for a program of glorious piano quintets; in February, celebrated guitarist Colin Davin will return to perform Bach, Schubert, and other gems; in March, we will celebrate the return of two Musical Masterworks veterans—flutist Tara Helen O’Connor and pianist Adam Neiman; and for a very special season finale on April 30 and May 1, I will be joined by pianist Jeewon Park, double bassist Michael Thurber, and violinist Tessa Lark. And now for a bit of news. With mixed emotions and great love for this organization, I have decided after 15 fulfilling years of artistic leadership at Musical Masterworks to step down as Artistic Director after this concert season. It is my belief that every great arts organization must allow for renewal and fresh creative ideas in order to remain vibrant. To that end, I am thrilled to announce that my dear colleague and longtime beloved Musical Masterworks veteran, violinist Tessa Lark, will take the reins as Artistic Director beginning in the 2022–23 concert season. Since Tessa’s triumphant Musical Masterworks debut nearly a decade ago, she has formed a bond with our audience unlike any other artist I have seen. She has delighted us not only with her exquisite violin playing, but also with her warmth and charm, and she has amazed us with her extraordinary range of musical interests and talents.

18

To Our Audience Tessa shares my values and reverence for the golden age of musical composition and all that we hold dear at Musical Masterworks, while also bringing fresh and wonderful ideas—including her own musical creations—to the table. This season, Tessa will assume the title of Artistic Director Designate, and she will be joining me onstage for four out of the five concert weekends. As I celebrate my final year as Artistic Director, I will remind you frequently from the stage that I intend never to be a stranger. I will look forward to many happy returns to Musical Masterworks as a cellist and as a smiling audience member. And I will treasure every moment of this coming concert season filled with glorious music, extraordinary musicians, and the pure joy of sharing it with you all in the place that I will always call my musical home. - Edward Arron - Artistic Director

A Lasting Legacy As enduring as the chamber music we love, your planned gift to Musical Masterworks helps to assure our continued performances and the sense of renewal and enrichment they will provide to future generations. We encourage you to consider: • A will bequest in favor of Musical Masterworks • A charitable annuity or charitable remainder or lead trust • A gift of appreciated properties (such as securities) Such planned giving may realize major income and estate tax savings.

The Fifth Meetinghouse of the First Congregational Church of Old Lyme The First Congregational Church of Old Lyme has a long tradition of support for the arts. Offering the Meetinghouse as a “home” for Musical Masterworks is in keeping with what the theologian Paul Tillich termed the “Theology of Culture;” believing that spiritual revelations and epiphanies come to us not only through scripture, but also from the broad tapestry of all the culture around us: music, theatre, visual arts, and more. In his famous poem, “Archaic Torso of Apollo,” Rilke concludes with these words, “You must change your life.” So it is with the power of music. It has the ability to transport us to ever higher places, and open the door to epiphanies in our lives. In this time of coronavirus, given the uncertainty and strain we are all feeling, the gift of music through Musical Masterworks concerts is a particularly precious gift to our community. The Meetinghouse is thought to be one of the finest small halls for chamber music in the state of Connecticut. Part of the reason for this may be that it is the ideal size for chamber music. Another reason may be that the domed ceiling distributes sound evenly throughout the sanctuary. But part of the reason might lie in the unique construction of this particular building. The fourth Meetinghouse, also located on this site, burned to the ground on July 3, 1907. There were no architectural plans to be found for the destroyed building, so Ernest Greene of New York City relied on the measurement of the old foundation (49’2” x 58’6”) and a number of photographs, as well as paintings by the artists within Old Lyme’s impressionist tradition. The building committee gave their architect one new specification: the building had to be fireproof. To fulfill this last request, Greene created an inner core of steel and concrete for the new structure. Thus, like a great piano, the building has a rigid steel frame beneath its beautiful wooden veneer. And therein may lie the reason for its superb acoustics. The members and friends of The First Congregational Church of Old Lyme are proud to offer Musical Masterworks this home for their performances, and we welcome all who attend. – The Rev. Carleen R. Gerber, Associate Minister
