ABOUT THE NEW MEXICO PERFORMING ARTS SOCIETY:

The mission of the New Mexico Performing Arts Society (NMPAS) is to foster the
work of New Mexico-based professional musicians and artists.

CONCERTS: NMPAS currently presents The Chapel Series at Immaculate Heart,

The New Mexico Bach Society, and Santa Fe Flute Immersion, an international
flute masterclass with outstanding teachers and innovative workshops in the
relaxed setting of the Immaculate Heart Retreat Center (www.ihmretreat.com).

EDUCATION: The educational component of NMPAS is a priority for the

organization. The Chapel Series has collaborated with the New Mexico School
for the Arts, and NMPAS will continue to offer reduced ticket prices to parents
who bring their children to our performances. Santa Fe Flute Immersion also
offers discounted rates to New Mexico high school and college students.

VISION: Many outstanding musicians and artists are moving to New Mexico
each year, bringing decades of international experience with them. They value
the rich cultural heritage and natural beauty that our state is known for, as well as
its long tradition of nurturing the arts. NMPAS intends to engage the very best
New Mexico-based artists.

The New Mexico Performing Arts Society, currently in our 3rd season, is deeply
grateful to all of our supporters for helping us to continue to bring exceptional
choral, orchestral, and chamber music to audiences in the greater Santa Fe and
Albuquerque metropolitan areas and beyond.

In order to keep this tradition of cultural enrichment alive, we need to continue

to ask for your support, as ticket sales cover only a fraction of our costs.

Franz Vote has been called one of the finest conductors of his generation.
Named a "singer's conductor" by reviewers, his rapport with musicians, both
on stage and in the orchestra pit, elicits music-making of the highest level.

Maestro Vote began his professional career in 1980 as a conductor at The

Eastman School of Music and The Aspen Music Festival. In 1982 he was
engaged at the Musiktheater im Revier in Gelsenkirchen, Germany, where he
conducted Le nozze di Figaro, L'elisir d'amore, Giulio Cesare, Xerxes, and
L'Orfeo. His successes there led to productions of Gianni Schicchi and Hans
Werner Henze's Don Chisciotte de la Mancia in Aachen. From there, he went
to the Grtnerplatz Theater in Munich and the Theater des Westens in Berlin.
Maestro Votes approach to conducting is informed by extensive experience in
German opera houses and his 1989 engagement at the Bayreuth Festival as
Assistant Conductor to Daniel Barenboim and James Levine.

In 1990 he was invited by James Levine to join the Metropolitan Opera,

conducting performances of Elektra, Madama Bufferfly, Un ballo in maschera,
La forza del destino, Les contes d'Hoffmann, and the 1996 New Year's Eve
Gala. Placido Domingo invited him to lead Tokyo's Kanagawa Philharmonic
Orchestra for the Operalia Vocal Competition.

The Los Angeles native has collaborated with many of the world's most
prominent operatic artists, including Luciano Pavarotti, Placido Domingo,
Hildegard Behrens, Stephanie Blythe, Jane Eaglen, Rene Fleming, Galina
Gorchakova, Ben Heppner, Jerry Hadley, James King, Susanne Mentzer,
Richard Leach, Samuel Ramey and Deborah Voigt, among many others.

Maestro Vote achieved international prominence and received high acclaim as

Music Director of Wagner's Der Ring des Nibelungen at Seattle Opera in 2001
with soprano Jane Eaglen. Recent seasons have included Opera Memphis'
Samson et Dalila with Barbara Dever and Otoniel Gonzaga, Aida and Salome
for Orlando Opera, plus touring with that company to Toulon, France; Faust at
Sarasota Opera, which Opera News called a "Faust, passionately, arrestingly
conducted by Franz Vote, who was as interested in theatrical sweep as in
nuances of tempo and phrasing." His recent performances of Lucia di
Lammermoor at Opera Naples were called the company's best ever...every
section was strong, tightly meshed and well-rehearsed. Votes direction
created a seamless tapestry from [the orchestra] and the singers...

Franz Vote currently lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico, where he is Music
Director and Conductor of the New Mexico Bach Society and Vice-President
of the New Mexico Performing Arts Society. He also guests conducts at various
opera houses around the country.
Program Notes

Jean-Philippe Rameau (1683-1764)

The Pices de clavecin en concerts were published in 1741 and were the
only chamber music works that the composer wrote. They also came rather
late in his career and are mature works that differ considerably in style from
Italian trio sonatas.

Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750)

The Coffee Cantata (BWV 211) was composed for Zimmermanns Coffee
House in Leipzig, Germany, in 1732. The text is by the Leipzig poet
Christian Friedrich Henrici, better known as Picander.

3 Recitative - Schlendrian, Lieschen
Schlendrian
You wicked child, you disobedient girl,
Oh! If only I could have my way :
Youd give up coffee for me!
Lieschen
Father dear, dont be so severe!

three times a day,
Then to my horror Ill shrivel up
like a piece of roast goat.
4 Aria - Lieschen
Oh, how sweet coffee tastes,
its lovelier than a thousand kisses,
mellower than muscatel wine.
Coffee, coffee, I must have it,
and if someone wants to quench my
thirst, just serve me up some coffee!
5 Recitative: Schlendrian, Lieschen
If you dont give up coffee like I say,
then youre not going to any wedding

Ba Schlendrian:

Sopran Lieschen:

Eh ich noch zu Bette geh,
Einen wackern Liebsten kriegte!
9 Recitativo - Tenor
Nun geht und sucht der alte
Schlendrian,
Wie er vor seine Tochter Liesgen
Bald einen Mann verschaffen kann;
Doch, Liesgen streuet heimlich aus:
Kein Freier komm mir in das Haus,
Er hab es mir denn selbst versprochen
Und rck es auch der Ehestiftung ein,
Da mir erlaubet mge sein,
Den Coffee, wenn ich will, zu kochen.
10 Coro (Terzetto) Sopran, Tenor, Ba
Die Katze lt das Mausen nicht,
Die Jungfern bleiben Coffeeschwestern.
Die Mutter liebt den Coffeebrauch,
Die Gromama trank solchen auch,
Wer will nun auf die Tchter lstern!
Lieschen:
Oh yes, dear father, a husband!
Schlendrian:
I swear that its not going to happen.
Lieschen:
Until I give up coffee?
Well! Coffee, Ill set it aside!
Listen, dear father, I won't drink any more.
Schlendrian:
Well then, youll finally get one!
8 Aria - Lieschen
Today dear father
is going to do it after all!
Oh, a husband!
Truly that suits me fine!
If only it would happen soon,
before coffee and
ere I go to bed,
that I finally get a worthy lover!
9 Recitative - Narrator
Now old Schlendrian goes
and looks into
how he can quickly find a husband
for his daughter Lieschen;
But Lieschen secretly spreads the word that
No suitor will enter my house unless
he has promised me himself,
and puts it in the marriage contract,
that I may be permitted
to make coffee whenever I like.
10 Chorus (Terzetto)
A cat wont stop mousing,
and maidens remain coffee fanatics.
Mother loves to take coffee,
Grandma drank it too,
so who will speak ill of daughters?!

Carlos Archuleta, a native New Mexican, has had a varied and full singing
career as an operatic baritone. His repertoire ranged from Rossini and Verdi to
Adams and DeFalla. He has performed with notable companies such as The
Santa Fe Opera, Washington National Opera, New York City Opera,
Cincinnati Opera, Dallas Opera, Minnesota Opera and Utah Opera.
Repertoire includes Figaro in Il Barbiere di Siviglia and Le Nozze de Figaro,
Conte Almaviva in Le Nozze de Figaro, Papageno in Die Zauberflote, and
Conte di Luna in Il Trovatore. One of his signature roles was Escamillo in
Carmen, which took him to London, performing in the Royal Albert Hall.
Other roles include Belcore in L'elisir d'amore, Malatesta in Don Pasquale,
Nixon in Nixon in China, Sharpless in Madama Butterfly, Marcello and
Schaunard in La Boheme, Silvio in Pagliacci, Alvaro in Florencia en el
Amazonas and Germont in La Traviata. As an oratorio soloist, Mr. Archuleta
has performed the solos for J.S. Bach's Cantata, "Ich habe genug" with the
American Festival of Microtonal Music (NYC), and was the baritone soloist in
Nielsen's Symphony No. 3 with Maestro Osmo Vnsk and the Minnesota
Orchestra. Other appearances include Mendelssohn's Elijah, most recently
with the Santa Fe Community Orchestra, Handel's Messiah, Bach's Magnificat,
Orff's Carmina Burana and the Brahms, Faure and Verdi Requiems.

Praised by the Santa Fe New Mexican for his fluid phrases; rich, focused
tone; rhythmic precision; and spot-on intonation, Albuquerque native,
violinist and conductor David Felberg is Artistic Director and co-founder of
Chatter Sunday, Chatter 20-21, and Chatter Cabaret. He is Concertmaster of
the Santa Fe Symphony and Music Director of the Albuquerque
Philharmonic. He also teaches contemporary music at the University of New
Mexico and is the associate concertmaster of the New Mexico Philharmonic.
His robust conducting career has included conducting the New Mexico
Symphony Orchestra, New Mexico Philharmonic, Santa Fe Symphony, and
many performances of contemporary music with Chatter.

David performs throughout the southwest as concert soloist, recitalist and

chamber musician. He made his New York debut in Merkin Hall in 2005.
He received a Bachelor of Arts in History from the University of Arizona and
a Master of Music in Conducting from the University of New Mexico. He
has taken advanced string quartet studies at the University of Colorado with
the Takacs Quartet and was awarded a fellowship to attend the American
Academy of Conducting at the Aspen Music Festival. David plays an 1829
J.B. Vuillaume violin.

Dr. Andre Garcia-Nuthmann has been a tenor soloist in the New Mexico area
for many years. In the summer of 2009, Andre sang the tenor solos in a
performance of Joseph Haydns Die sieben letzten Worte in Eisenstadt, Austria,
at the Haydn Saal in the Esterhazy Palace. This concert was part of the
programs commemorating the 200th anniversary of Haydns death. In the
summer of 2007, Andre and his choir El Coro de la Tierra Alta participated
in the Classical Music Festival in Eisenstadt, Austria celebrating Joseph
Haydns 275th Birthday. While there, Andre was the guest soloist and his
choir was Choir in Residence. Andre has often been featured as tenor
soloist in Canticum Novum conducted by Kenneth Knight. In March of 2006
he sang the tenor solos in the Verdi Requiem with the Santa Fe Community
Orchestra conducted by Oliver Present. Andre often has soloed with the
Santa Fe Symphony including Haydns Theresienmesse and Paukenmesse,
Mozarts Requiem, Beethovens Choral Fantasy, Dave Brubecks Fiesta de la
Posada, Bachs Magnificat and Mass in b minor, and Handels Messiah. In
2001 he was invited by BachWorks, with Anthony Newman, director, to
celebrate Bachs birthday in Manhattan. Besides oratorio, Andre has been
featured in several operatic roles including Don Giovanni, Die Zauberflte,
The Prima Donna, The Bartered Bride, Amahl and the Night Visitors, Bastien
and Bastienne, and has performed for the Santa Fe Opera Outreach Program
and One Hour Opera. The favorite role he sang was Lenski in UNM Opera
studios production of Tchaikovskys Eugene Onegin under the direction of
Marilyn Tyler. His most recent role was that of the Mad Woman in Brittens
Curlew River. In summer 2002 Andre shared the stage with Kurt Ollmann in
a musical homage to Leonard Bernstein. Currently, Andre is the Chair of
Visual and Performing Arts at New Mexico Highlands University. He holds a
doctorate in vocal performance from Arizona State University and coaches
voice with Regina Rickless.

James Holland holds degrees in cello performance from the University of

Alabama and the Eastman School of Music. After graduating from Eastman,
James became a member of the Miami-based New World Symphony under
the direction of Michael Tilson Thomas. From 1996-2007, he was Principal
Cellist of the Charleston (SC) Symphony Orchestra, and performed as soloist
with that orchestra on numerous occasions. James spends his summers as
Principal Cellist of the Breckenridge Music Festival, where he has served as
Principal Cellist since 1998. In August of 2007, James and his wife, violinist
Megan Julyan Holland, relocated to Albuquerque, where they quickly
established themselves as highly-sought-after performers and teachers. He
performs regularly with Chatter, the Santa Fe Pro Musica, the Santa Fe
Symphony, the Placitas Artists' Series, Chamber Music Amarillo, and, in the
spring of 2014 was appointed President and Artistic Director of Albuquerque
Chamber Soloists. In 2012 James joined jazz legends Eddie Daniels and
Roger Kellaway in a performance of the music of Duke Ellington in Santa Fe.
Artist Bios, contd.
The concert was recorded and released by IPO Recordings as Duke at the
Roadhouse: Live in Santa Fe. In addition to his large private cello studio,
James directed the strings program at Sandia Preparatory School and
currently coaches chamber music groups for the Albuquerque Youth
Symphony Program. What little time he has left is spent chasing his two
daughters Olivia, 5, and Emily, 3.

Flutist Linda Marianiello enjoys an ongoing solo career that includes

concerto appearances with the Bavarian Radio Orchestra, the Orchester
Concerto Armonico Oberammergau, the New American Chamber
Orchestra, the Fairfield Chamber Orchestra, the Wyoming Symphony, the
Mercury Ensemble, and the Musica Sacra Chamber Orchestra. She plays
in recital at European festivals in Bayreuth, Salzburg, Potsdam-Sanssouci,
Oberammergau, Deya-Mallorca, Elba and Graz. In addition to performing
on many well-known concert series throughout the United States, she is a
frequent guest at National Flute Association conventions. She also appears
in live television broadcasts on ORB-Berlin, Spanish National Television,
Austrian National Television, Bavarian Television, and numerous PBS
television stations. Linda Marianiello is heard on many National Public
Radio stations, most notably in live performance on WNYC-New York.

She is particularly interested in recording standard repertoire in new ways

and has a passion for introducing quality repertoire that is less widely
known. Her numerous chamber music recordings for the Bavarian Radio
Studios in Munich, Germany emphasize nineteenth and twentieth-century
works for flute with piano and strings. Baroque Sampler (Swineshead
Productions, Berkeley, CA 2001) features French and German works for
baroque flutes and harpsichord. The American Music Research Center at
the University of Colorado at Boulder commissioned the Marianiello-Reas
Duo to record Dialogues: American Music for Flute and Organ (MSR
Classics 2003). The success of the first CD led the Duo to release a second
album, Cantilena (MSR Classics 2010). Consolations (MSR Classics 2008)
features Romantic works by Franck, Widor, and Liszt. Recorded in the
Europasaal in Bayreuth, Consolations showcases the more intimate sounds
of a historic 1930 Verne Q. Powell flute and an 1872 Steingraeber Liszt
grand piano.

Her desire to collaborate has led to the founding of many chamber music
groups, among them The Con Brio Chamber Ensemble with colleagues
from the Bavarian State Opera; The New England Trio with flutist Brooks de
Wetter-Smith and pianist-conductor Franz Vote; The Chicago Fine Arts
Chamber Players with Stephen Balderston, former associate principal
cellist of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and Professor of Cello at De
Paul University, and pianist Aaron Krister Johnson, a multi-keyboardist,
composer, and the artistic director of Midwest Microfest.

As a teacher, Linda Marianiello has served on the faculties of the City

University of New York-Brooklyn College, Colorado State University, and
the Summer Flute Institute at the Sherwood Conservatory of Columbia
College in Chicago. She has performed and taught at numerous universities
as a guest artist in residence including Yale, Cornell, Northwestern, De
Paul, Rhodes College, Miami University of Ohio, SUNY-Fredonia, the
University of Wisconsin-Madison, the University of Illinois at Champaign-
Urbana, Brigham Young University, and the Xinghai Conservatory of Music
in Guangzhou, China. Thanks to new technologies, Marianiello now also
teaches extensively via the Internet.

Linda Marianiello lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Marianiello is president

of the New Mexico Performing Arts Society, the umbrella organization that

demands as she ably conveys the character's fundamental goodness and
innocence." Of the same production, Opera Magazine (a United Kingdom

Annina. Her voice was warm and expansive, and supple in weight and tone
colour. She was always convincing as the innocent projecting the strength
and peace of her convictions."

Testimonials
The concert was stunning. I cannot believe that this chorus and orchestra have not
been working together for years. You both did an amazing job in organizing and
preparing this. And Franz, the performance was so musical and well paced-
phrasing, nuances and dynamics etc. ... I thought all of the soloists were
excellent. With a concert like this, I hope you will find many more backers-
individuals and foundations so that you can expand on this. Let us know when you
plan to have the next concert.

Judith Auer, Voice teacher, Boulder, Colorado

The Trust Board Members that attended were uniformly laudatory of the
concert! Comments included appreciation of the caliber of musicians assembled
both in the chorus and the orchestra I earlier said that I thought your
performance would be definitive. It was and is. - and so full of musical sense and
sensitivity. Thanks so much for all that you brought to this project!

James Bonnell, Chair, the UNM John Donald Robb Musical Trust, Albuquerque, NM

Many thanks to you both for putting on such a magnificent concert. All my
friends and relatives had nothing but superlatives to say and think we are
the"cream of the crop"here in Santa Fe. I thought it was one ofthe best concerts
in which I have sung and I look forward to singing with youagain.

Christine Keightley, Singer, The New Mexico Bach Chorale

[My friends] are wonderful people who are real opera and choral music lovers.
I told them that if they wanted to hear the best singers that SF has to offer, they
need to hear the Bach Society.

Peter Merrill, Choral singer and entrepreneur, Santa Fe, NM

The concert the other night was wonderful - it was a special way to begin the
holiday season We thought it was lovely and were amazed at the sound from
such a comparatively small choir.
