Event Info
Re-live and “re-hear” Anchorage history as we recreate a chamber music program from the 1962 festival. Hear snippets of archival audio from the 1962 performance, and enjoy an eclectic mix of Haydn, Rossini, Carl Nielsen and others, performed live by Anchorage’s finest wind players. Concert goers are invited to dress, vibe, and party and like it’s June, 1962, when the Space Needle and Spider-Man were only days old, but the Cuban Missile Crises hadn’t yet shattered nerves.
Known for its historically informed concerts on baroque period instruments, AFM now applies this depth of research and attention to detail to mid-century modern! Not only will you hear audio of the fabulous Westwood Wind Quintet from 1962, but you will also learn how performance practice has evolved over the last sixty years. Even the instruments themselves have undergone visually subtle, but audibly significant changes.
The evening will be capped by an elegant and authentic reception recalling a time when Jello and fondu transcended the savory and sweet divide.
Featuring the Anchorage Symphony Orchestra Woodwind Quintet:
Laura Koenig, flute
Naomi Stamoolis, oboe
Karl Pasch, clarinet
Kyle Noonan, bassoon
Darrel Kincade, horn
