ComposerFest/Franz Josef Haydn

Concert 1: Chamber

April 24, 2026 at 7:00 p.m.

With the 68 string quartets composed over the course of his career, Franz Josef Haydn established the combination of two violins, viola and cello as an essential genre. While he has come to be called the “Father of the String Quartet” Haydn also composed numerous string trios, piano trios, and flute chamber music. In this concert, Urban Nocturnes will explore the range of Haydn’s chamber music, performing select movements from works for strings, piano and winds.

This concert is sponsored by Gail Browne and Frances Sjoberg.

ComposerFest/Franz Josef Haydn Concert 2: Lieder and Piano

April 25, 2026 at 4:00 p.m.

Members of Helios: A Modern Renaissance celebrate the brilliance and versatility of Franz Joseph Haydn. This program features a dynamic mix of vocal, chamber, and keyboard works. Selections from his monumental oratorios—including The Creation—alongside delightful surprises from his lesser-known repertoire will be included. From elegant piano works to spirited vocal ensembles and charming lieder, the concert reveals the wit and warmth that can be overshadowed by his symphonic achievements.

This concert is sponsored by Ward Mayer.

Spencer Mahaffey Lightfoot and Nolan Lightfoot present Faces and Places, offering a dialogue between the personal and the universal, inviting us to explore the beauty in both our inner and outer worlds.

For Spencer, painting is a form of meditation. The portraits in this exhibition focus on close-up faces. Spencer is inspired by the individuality of each person, the subtle shifts in expression, mood, and personality that make every face distinct. “The longer I spend painting these faces, the more I notice the quiet similarities that connect us. Each portrait becomes both a study of one person and a reminder of the threads that run through all of us.”

Nolan spent his life surrounded by the landscapes of the American West, particularly the connected environments of Colorado and Arizona. His abstract paintings depict long stretches of highway, shifting skies, changing elevations, and the subtle transitions in color, light, and terrain. “I find constant inspiration in its quiet, fleeting moments. The rumble of distant clouds, sunlight catching the spine of a cactus, or a row of ravens scattered along a weathered fence line all carry a quiet significance.” 

 WHEN: March 30th – April 21st, 2026

Spencer Mahaffey Lightfoot y Nolan Lightfoot presentan «Faces and Places», una exposición que establece un diálogo entre lo personal y lo universal, invitándonos a explorar la belleza tanto de nuestro mundo interior como del exterior.

Para Spencer, pintar es una forma de meditación. Los retratos de esta exposición se centran en primeros planos de rostros. Spencer se inspira en la individualidad de cada persona, en los sutiles cambios de expresión, estado de ánimo y personalidad que hacen que cada rostro sea único. «Cuanto más tiempo paso pintando estos rostros, más me doy cuenta de las silenciosas similitudes que nos conectan. Cada retrato se convierte tanto en un estudio de una persona como en un recordatorio de los hilos que nos unen a todos».

Nolan pasó su vida rodeado de los paisajes del oeste de Estados Unidos, en particular de los entornos conectados de Colorado y Arizona. Sus pinturas abstractas representan largos tramos de carretera, cielos cambiantes, elevaciones variables y las sutiles transiciones en el color, la luz y el terreno. «Encuentro inspiración constante en sus momentos tranquilos y fugaces. El rugido de las nubes lejanas, la luz del sol reflejada en la espina de un cactus o una fila de cuervos dispersos a lo largo de una cerca desgastada por el tiempo tienen todos un significado silencioso». 

CUÁNDO:     Del 30 de marzo al 21 de abril de 2026
